Another Postcard that I decided to show the back of it. During the early 1900's the rules for postcards changed from Only an address on one side to allowing a message to be put on the back. This postcard was not divided on the back, so originally it was printed to have the address only. You can see where the person writing the card penciled in their own division to separate the message from the address. The postmark is Jan 22 1910 from Norwood, NC and was sent to Washington, DC. Norwood is a small town inland in North Carolina between Charlotte and Rockingham.
A reminder to folks who are fans of my postcard posts. Coming in 2021, I will be highlighting the cards that you guys send to me. So send me a postcard! And you will see it on the blog in 2021. Amanda Arkebauer PO Box 16131 Seattle, WA 98116

I have been enjoying you Wrightsville Beach postcards. We haven't been going to Wilmington as much as we did when Jim's mom was alive. He does still have his sister there and family in Raleigh but we just haven't been able to get there. We had hoped to go at Christmas but waiting to see how things are in December. The postcards have brought back lots of memories of how much we enjoyed the beach there.
