WP2141 WPG - SEEING WINNIPEG (MAN & WOMAN IN CAR)

WP2141 WPG - SEEING WINNIPEG (MAN & WOMAN IN CAR)
POSTCARD

Date: Not Posted or handwritten but the Stamp Box on the reverse is a PMC with diamonds in the corners - only known usage was in 1907.

Publisher / Photographer: Unidentified

Notation: This postcard was never posted, the handwritten note covers the entire back of the card.

Addressed to a Mrs. Shafer, it reads; "This is not the photo I intended sending you of my husband, but we had these taken in Winnipeg last Saturday just for a joke. Don't form an opinion of him from this; the one I will send you later is a better one. We were at the matinee Saturday. It reminded me of you and Cleveland. I suppose you received my letter a few days ago. Have been busy all week writing letters, acknowledging gifts. I will tell you all of them when we get settled."

Signed "Marge", an added note reads; " This is not a 'really' auto just a card behind which we could sit to have this wonderful photo. We felt so silly when we sat down that we giggled for about ten minutes."

Alan Mays has particularly liked this photo

Sometimes the notes are as interesting/entertaining as the images. :)
