the return of Peggy’s Postcards
Starting today, I’ll be continuing with my series of Peggy’s Postcards. If you’re new to my postcard collection, this is one of two special sets of postcards that I’ve been posting. In contrast to my standard posts, these postcards were not sent directly to me. Instead, Peggy’s Postcards is a collection of almost 5 dozen postcards that the eponymous Peggy donated to me while going through her extensive correspondence. Many of the postcards were penned originally by Peggy herself and sent to friends and family from her various travels across the US and the world many decades ago. Knowing that I like postcards, she sent me the lot and has given me permission to post them (with addresses and other identifying information redacted). I upload the front and the reverse of these postcards, and usually transcribe the message, too. I’ll be picking up with the nineteenth postcard in my collection (they’re in no particular order), and as my energy and interest dictates, may upload the first eighteen at some point. Enjoy!
