Valentines, chicks and bunnies, really posted around 1910.
Postcards
Valentine and Easter cards from the Newberry Library’s postcard collection, every one really posted: each is dated by its postmark or stamp.
“Print postcard” makes real postcards: the picture on one side and a postcard back on the other, with what the
picture shows, who made it and where it is kept, and room for a message, an address and a stamp.
Fronts printed. Put the printed pages back in the paper tray to print on their blank side:
If you’re not sure which way round, try it with one page first.
