When the postcard was new it probably generated the same enthusiasm as today's Twittter and Facebooking.

They didn't have recordings, or the recordings were of poor quality, so music was always live. Images of musicians could be so easily sold and understood. Imagine today postcards of musicians such as these. And like you said, in the future what will there be to peruse? It's not only sad to think images from now will be possibly gone, but that the people who took them won't even be able to access them because of changes in technology. Everything is now so temporary.Tattered and Losthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00208918251232477186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447020772809150478.post-47076835098896801822013-09-29T04:12:12.379-04:002013-09-29T04:12:12.379-04:00Yes Lauara's writing is wonderful and "Wa...Yes Lauara's writing is wonderful and "Walnut Tree Farm" sounds very appealing.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06636761469099608281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447020772809150478.post-43247935337320034262013-09-27T20:23:42.949-04:002013-09-27T20:23:42.949-04:00You have found such fantastic postcards.
