From Frank Bero

This is the last dated postcard in the collection. As you can see it's difficult to read. Many of the postcard messages were written in pencil and are faded. It took some digital enhancing to make them legible. There are over 400 postcards in the collection. Among them are several that have messages but not dates and there are several that are blank on the reverse side. The images on the postcards are rich in history, many of them depicting historical landmarks as they were in that time period.
If you are interested in viewing the entire collection please contact me and I'd be happy to share them with you.
