    My grandmother recently passed and we found this while sorting through boxes of old photos. I am not an expert by any means and was not able to find any information online. It's a post card written to a relative but doesn't look to ever be postmarked. It's in really good shape, features an embossed booklet attached to the front. I would love to get some info, especially how old this may be. Thank you!

      Try to research your relatives name - the clues there could help pinpoint the era.

      Thank you. We are familiar with the name and relationships. Aunt Mina died in the early 1970s and she was in her 80s. This card is from George, they were eventually married but this was addressed to her maiden name. My best guess is she was in her teens/early 20s when this would have been received making it from around 1910 (again, this is my best guess!). While we are just a few hours from the Canadian border, I do not believe this has anything to do with Canada. It does however say it was printed in Germany.
