The "Spirit of '76"


Hello there I suppose you think I entirely forgot about you but I did not. How are you and all. Best to all. I hope you enjoy the 4. Your Friend Anna. I think this is from my Great Granny, even though it says "friend" instead of "sister". It's postmarked from Lorain, Ohio, June 17, 1908. I really like the representation of the "spirit" on this card. It reminds me of the holy ghost.

St Mary's Church, Lorain, O.


I am at Oster's yet but we'll go to N. Amherst soon. I had a fine trip & am having a good time. Yours, M. Junk. This address includes R.N.1, Ottawa, Ohio, which gives a little more info than previous cards. I'm guessing that M Junk is a sibling, but i don't know for sure. It is postmarked from Lorain, Aug 25, 1908.
