#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Penny Postcard Wishing You a Merry Christmas

It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society.

This week we return to our tradition of posting a penny postcard “wishing you a Merry Christmas.” These penny postcards were popular during the first few decades of the 20th century and cost only a 1 cent stamp to send. This card was printed in Germany and has “post card” written in many languages on the back.

Merry Christmas and join us next week for New Year’s greetings.
