At the bottom of the postage stamp box from my third great uncle there was a lot of envelopes, with the letters still inside. Mixed in with the letters were some very old postcards. These two I thought were coolest. The first one, with Abraham Lincoln, is from 1909. The person it is addressed to is not a relative, as far as I know, and it's postmarked New York, so I have no idea how he came to own it. The second, is a picture of the school in the town that my third great aunt and uncle eventually moved to, Roundup, Montana.
