This post card is postmarked Mar 15 10-AM 1909. This one is my favorite so far. The front of the card is gilded (it's hard to see in the scan) and the red roses seem to suggest some sort of romantic entanglement. The back is extremely cryptic. I'm not sure how anyone knew who was writing to them with cards like this.

The back of the card says:

Hello Kid
how are you
you know,
who this is
good by

writ soon

and it is addressed to:

Ms W O Young
111 Third St

Merrill
Wis
