Shawsville Store, Shawsville, Maryland, Christmas, 1907

"Shawsville Store, Christmas, 1907. Wishing your a merry Christmas."

A real photo postcard addressed on the back to "Mr. Charles Preston, Rocks, Maryland." The postmark indicates a Maryland origin--it probably came from Shawsville, Maryland--but is otherwise illegible. A separate "rec'd" mark, however, specifies that it arrived in Rocks, Md., on Dec. 26, 1907.
