3.0 out of 5 stars Common cards from the Commonwealth, October 10, 2007

By	Gary Sprandel (Frankfort, Kentucky) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After a shorting introduction of post card history, 400-500 postcards are presented in black and white, and 22 in color. The cards, from 1900-1950, are arranged alphabetically, and dates for the individual cards are not included. The message on the card is not included, and a brief description is included for about a fourth of the cards (for example in showing a flood, there should have been a caption that this was the 1937 Louisville flood). Still there are some nice cards here, particularly when depicting people; such as; "Wash day at Camp Zachary Taylor", "Making Burgo in Old Kentucky", and several unlabelled real photo postcards.
