(Family Search ID G3PC-VD8, 7th cousin five times removed) Postmarked: Grand Canyon, Ariz. 7:30 PM Message: Homeward bound from here. Tired but enjoyed it all. Best regards, M & B. Postcard: Front: M-1531 Grand Canyon Arizona, From Hopi Point Copr. Detroit Photographic Co. Back: "Phostint" Trade Mark - Reg. U. S. Pat Off. - Made only by Detroit Publishing Co. The scene constantly changes. While one looks the colors turn from one shade to another and then change color. It is hardly imaginable that the opposite Canyon wall is 13 miles away. The mind is unused to grasping such tremendous things. At first one is not impressed by this, yet slowly but surely incredulity is changed to possibility, and doubt is changed to belief. 1 cent stamp  Address: Mrs. Clifford Reber

Can't believe it's been happening to us! Each Nat'l Park has its own charms - now in Salt Lake City (looking into Mormonism?) today then pushing on to Grand Tetons & Yellowstone.

AboutAfter purchasing a large lot of postcards I became fascinated! The idea that these messages are from over 100 years ago is amazing and I wanted a way to preserve and share them. Archives
