Week 50
Prompt - Christmas Cards
Bill's grandmother, Ida Jahnke (nee: Bachmann) kept a photo album type book for her postcards that she received in her younger years. Circa 1910 - 1920. These postcards are Christmas, Easter, Valentines, New Years and Birthday. I scanned them some years ago. The photos do not do them justice. Their colours are still vibrant after 100 plus years and some embossed. I wish to share some of the Christmas postcards she had saved.
To Ida from her aunt and uncle who lived in Arrow Park, B.C. Of course it is written in German Script.
Circa 1914
