Postcard messages might be read by anyone. That was part of the fun, so we don't think the authors would mind their cards being read again. These images are not available for commercial reproduction.
Messages are in date order and pinned to their postal address on the map (or toggle to see a satellite image). If an address cannot be found it is pinned to the postcard view location. Each title starts with the filename. To see both the front and back of a card click on that in the keywords under the image (use your back button to get back to this gallery).
