Greetings from Custar, O.

Dear Friend, We are all quite well Jimmie is feeling fine Your loving friend Mary Bates Custar O. This is odd because there is no postmark, but we obviously know where it comes from. The stamp is unusual - all of them have been one cent Ben Franklin stamps. This stamp is a Commemorative Series 1907 United States of America Founding of Georgetown Capt. John Smith. I did a little web research. It's a rare stamp. Unused, it's worth $150.

Every Little Helps

No signature. Sent from Weston September 14, 1 PM, 1905. I like this illustration. The well-to-do fellow looks sidelong at the poor schlub with his mismatched shoes and whiskers - reluctant to give up his coin. I love the font, also. It's copyrighted 1905 by E. B. & E.

Easter Wishes

MJO Postmarked March 30, 8 AM,1907, from Custar. The sender initialed the front in teeny tiny letters.

Greetings from Holgate, O.

Wishing you a glorious fourth of July. Yours. (notes inside the tiny envelope on the front)Happy Days for you - Love and Kind Wishes From A.U.O. Not sure who this is from - could it be great granny Oster once again? Although it's postmarked from Holgate, not Custar. Dated July 1, 1907.

Best Birthday Wishes

This card has no signature, but it's postmarked from Custar, so my guess is that it's from Anna - her sister, my great grandmother.

Happy Christmas
