Here is two photo post cards with interesting clothing.
No hints to who they were or where they lived.
That is part of the mystery
Will be added to my eBay store in the future.
If you have any idea to what kind of clothing the children are wearing  I would love to hear your ideas.
Note the fringe on the man's jacket, scarf around his neck and his hat.

SEPIA SATURDAY # 148 RPPC Men in Military Uniforms WWW1

Sepia Saturday today is about uniforms, bikes or maybe guns.  This party is put on by Sepia Saturday of the UK.
My posting is all about the uniform, lots of you men in uniforms. So many men climbing the stairs, laying on the ground and even 2 young men leaning out the windows.
This is a vintage real picture post card that has no stamp area or any identification. Two of the men have bands with a cross on their sleeves.


Not sure who these men are or what county they are from but my guess is WWW1 because of the post card having no stamp area and this came in a group of foreign post cards.
Take a look and let me know if you have any information to share about the uniforms.
Thanks for stopping by. Click on the Sepia Saturday link to see what others are sharing. Grace

Working To Identify Real Photo Postcard 1909 - 1914



Take a peek at this great Real Photo Postcard. It came out of family papers.


This group of children are standing in front of a black board with writing so they are in school.

Take a peek at their clothing. Young man second child from the right is in a sailor outfit. The hats the bonnets are amazing. There is young boy and girl second row and she is holding on to his arm. Probably her brother.

The back is unused except for a question mark some one wrote. The stamp area is marked by Velox around it with triangles dates it 1909 to 1914. Just noticed a big clue. On back is marked L E Conger Druggest, Mora Minnesota. This tells me it is from my mother's side of the family.



Such an adorable group of children. Wish I knew who they were. Need to study it more. My grandmother Grace lived in Mora at this time. She would of been 17 so not her but could very well be her younger sister born 1906 or brother born 1909.

Thanks for stopping by.. Hope that you have enjoyed seeing this real photo postcard and will come again real soon... Grace

Real Photo Post Card of Group of Children 1900's




Here is another real picture photo in my collection. This one is a group of 10 young children. Photo is small and sadly no names or anything on this photo to let us know who these children were.


Back of photo is marked Leonar and no stamp spot on photo. Not really sure how old this one is but from the early 1900's I think.
