I thought it was written as 1927, but does it say 1929? This was from a trip around the world. I wish it was marked w/ more info.

Hi Beaux: It looks like a "7" to me. Is this the only one you have? If you have others try comparing the numbers to the other ones. That might help.
Very smart idea! I will have to piece thru all this travel ephemera like a detective. Some family members just dumped it & left it scattered all over floors. It is a mess. There are Diary's, postcards, photo's, albums, filled w/ Whitestar, Cunard Cruises, letters, Menu's(my favorite) I am sorta overwhelmed. But it is fun. But I'm not a good historian either. But after this, I might be. Thank-you!
For me...it looks like a 4 =).
It is a 7! Very clever. I put a line thru my sevens, my Mom said that is the "uppity" way to write, but Ha! I think it is the sensible way!
A four, oh, goodness, I put up pic of bag that was in general area of where I found photo.
Thank-you!
& to back up the 7 theory, these are some of the postcards that were in bag. Thank-you!
