FRIENDSHIP FRIDAY SHARING MY VINTAGE THANKSGIVING POSTCARDS

Friendship Friday is here again and today I am sharing some of my vintage Thanksgiving postcards. They are all from the early 1900s and picture fat Turkeys and have a feeling of quiet times with family. Today it seems Thanksgiving is all about football and hurry off to shop at the stores.
I think I would rather sit back and have a nice dinner and visit with my family. I can shop another day.
Enjoy a peek into the past with my vintage postcards. They are up for sale on eBay along with a few others.

A Bright New Year Message In Our 1900's Vintage Postcard


Well good evening every one.

It is Christmas night and we have had a wonderful holiday.

Spent time with come of our children and grandchildren.

The fun will continue next week with more visiting of family.

We are now nearing New Years Eve and time to share some of my vintage New Years Postcards.
Isn't this a pretty scene with the barren trees and the peaceful creek.
The vintage postcards is unused. I am guessing that it is from the early 1900's. Our pretty card tells us this wonderful message

A Bright New year

In hope your New Year will be spent
in cheer and comfort and content.
And every task you set to do
Will bring a bright reward to you
Thanks so much for stopping by to visit me... please take a moment and look at some of my other vintage postcards.
I sure hope that you stop by again really soon... Grace

Hope that you will stop back again and see other vintage Thanksgiving postcards I will be sharing.

Happy Thanksgiving Day 1913 Vintage Postcard Turkey Day #5 on Friendship Friday






This is the last of the Thankgiving cards I bought a couple of weeks ago when I went Antiquing. Hopefully I have a couple of more to share with you in the future.



These vintage postcards are so colorful. This one is also dated 1913 and was mailed on Nov 21 to



Master LaRue Friend of O' Fallon from Uncle Charlie and Aunt Nel.


The Thanksgiving cards I have posted recently all came from the same family estate. Sad that some one no longer has this great family history in their collection.
Hope that you have enjoyed these Thankgiving cards, will have to search for any others I have.
Thanks for stopping by for Friendship Friday... take a look at others post and leave a message to let them know you stopped by. http://www.cpaphilblog.com/2008/11/talking-turkey-vintage-postcards.html
