Dear Ms. Powell,
Hope you are well and that you are able to get out. We had some snow here yesterday-very cold and slippery. I'm having a nice time. Will see you soon.
Best From Helen

A Brooklyn Postcard From The Past: The Main Post Office

24103


You know by now, dear Reader, that I love history and all things Brooklyn. Combine the two and you will not be surprised by this new series of old postcards sent in years and decades past from Brooklyn that I will be posting occasionally on PMFA.
Here is the first one.

More than 104 years ago, A.R.S. sent this Post card from Broklyn of the Cadman Plaza Post Office.

Dear Hatty,

You people out there are wonders. Steve sent me five postals and no two are alike.
