Here is another very pretty vintage New Years postcard in my collection.
From 1911 it wishes us
Good Luck and a Happy New Year
May good fortune favour you
I love the adorable little person sitting in the golden horse shoe
Postmarked Dec 30, 1911 from Sioux city Iowa to Mr. Geo Marchis of North Dakota
Sadly I can not really make out the message since it is written in tiny writing and signed Mr. O'Keefe.
I am sharing this at Red Wednesday

What a precious card - a great treasure! And the horseshoe is facing the correct direction!
ReplyDeleteGreat postcard, and I echo the comment that it's good to see one with a horseshoe positioned the right way up, i.e. to keep the luck in. All the horseshoe postcards I have show the horseshoe the other way up.
ReplyDeleteI have added you to my links, getting caught up! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a lucky day! :)
I love that the horseshoe is also a swing. Very sweet.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for visiting. It is an adorable swinging horse shoe
ReplyDeleteI love New Year postcards. Don't you think we should bring those back? Wouldn't that be a fun thing to receive in the mail?
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful card! This year I started collecting old postcards, mostly ones with our flag on them. I'm hoping to find a patriotic Christmas one soon, but no luck so far!
ReplyDeleteHappy REDnesday and Happy New Year!
