when i find vintage postcards in old shoeboxes and wooden trays in antique stores, this is how i often react immediately inside and outloud simultaneously: where to start, what to look for, omg, historical landmarks, random doctor portraits, landscapes, buildings, this one's cool, this one's from 1907, vintage, so vintage, i have to get all of this, what do i do, what to do, what do you think, decisions, decisions, thanks, i'm going to buy all of these.
i'm also a huge sucker for handwritten personal messages on the back of postcards-the kind of love that's transported and received.
i live to dive in the past, explore the forgotten, and recreate in the present.
