Dear Bobby,
I made an announcement to the USGenWeb CC lists, but I know how few CCs
are subscribed. I wonder if you would make an announcement for me on
your state list?
After putting together several sites of vintage postcards, I wondered
how many other non-commercial vintage postcard galleries there were out
there. There are quite a few, but finding them requires wading through
many auction and dealer pages, special interest sites, and foreign
countries to find those elusive US town and state collections.
I have begun building a directory of links to those sites by state and
special interest. These sites are of private collectors, libraries,
historical societies, town governments, USGenWeb, and ALHN.
It's been a fascinating project- sort of like a vintage trip across
America! I don't want to miss any great vintage postcard sites, or have
any states underrepresented. If any of your county coordinators have a
vintage postcard page- or know of someone who has- would you please ask
them to contact me?
Thank you so much, and please "drop by" when you can!
