#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Christmas Greetings

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

“Christmas Greetings” to everyone from the Whitewater Historical Society. This image is from the society’s collection of holiday “penny” post cards, popular during the first two decades of the 20th century.

On the back of this card sent to Miss Ida Edwards, the sender wishes Ida a Merry Christmas and “lots of presents.” The card is postmarked December 21, 1910.

Join us next week for greetings for the New Year!
