I date this post card between 1912 and 1918.
The photo is of Bessie, the daughter of my grandfathers older sister who was born Nov. 21, 1884. She was married on Feb. 17, 1907 and died on June 15, 1920.
I dated the postcard by looking on line and it described the "stamp box" as AZO with 4-triangles, one in each corner, pointing up as being used between 1904 - 1918.
I do not have the birth date of Bessie so I'm just going on her mothers marriage and death.
Thanks for looking,
Dave
