Wishing you all a happy Christmas and a happy #FlashbackFriday from the Whitewater Historical Society!

In the early twentieth century, lithographed holiday postcards were enormously popular. Some people even collected them! Pictured here is a Christmas postcard postmarked 5PM, December 20th, 1909 in Milton, Wisconsin. It was sent to a Miss Edith Wheeler of Whitewater from her cousin in Milton.

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society collections!
