Mary Schluchter postcard album, 1906-1914
1 volume
The Mary Schluchter postcard album contains 60 postcards in a souvenir album. A majority of the postcards were sent to Mary Schluchter of Pigeon, Michigan from both friends and family between 1906 to 1914. Much of the content consists of statements of arrivals, wellbeing, and letters to come. A few postcards consist of gossip among friends. The three most frequent senders are Harvey Schluchter (Mary Schluchter's eldest brother), Anna (referred to as a cousin), and Lillian (relation to Mary Schluchter unknown). The postcards were primarily sent from cities throughout Michigan, including Detroit, Saginaw, and Ann Arbor. Other postcards originate from New York, Ontario, Ohio, Illinois, and Minnesota. The postcard images show monuments, nature, and cityscapes from these locations.
The album is 21 x 14 cm with black cloth covers. "Souvenir Cards" is stamped on the front cover in gold.
