    the folks in the first two photos appear to be posing in the same auto. That's a picture of Union Station in the background. Second photo is dated Oct 14, 1913. It is addressed to someone in Doe Run, MO. Market Street, opposite the Station is also printed on card.
    third card is a different auto. also reads seeing st. louis. the round tag reads 1819. tree limb backdrop.

      An auto set up in a photo studio for photos which was done in those days. The sitters don't seem too impressed with the sights !~

      Yes, PhilDMorris, I don't know why folks didn't smile in photos back in the day. I would think it was a big deal to pose for a postcard. Maybe it was too serious for grins!
