Stick to Me and You Will Wear Diamonds, L. M. Arnold, Sand Patch, Pennsylvania

Stick to Me and You Will Wear Diamonds, L. M. Arnold, Sand Patch, Pennsylvania
The last line on this amusing acquaintance card refers to a song, "Any Old Place I Can Hang My Hat Is Home Sweet Home to Me," which was published as sheet music in 1901 and recorded on phonograph cylinder in 1902, making it likely that the card dates from sometime in the early 1900s.

For more cards, see my album of Acquaintance Cards. For information about my book of detachable acquaintance cards, head over to my Flickr About page

L. M. Arnold, Sand Patch, Pa., R.F.D. No. 1

Let's get acquainted. Capital 50 millions in my dreams. Not married.

Stick to me and you will wear diamonds,

Kind regards to friends and knockers. Out for a good time.

Any old place I hang my hat is my home sweet home.
