Mary gave this beautiful birthday postcard – made in Germany – to her oldest daughter, Georgiana Frances. Unfortunately, the card is not dated.

When you open the card, the die-cut on the left inside is visible . . .

and the right inside is very roughly translated as follows:

FOR BIRTHDAYS

Only happiness and

pure joy

Happy feelings

all the time

Health, wealth

God’s blessing

Be you granted

all because!

And finally, the back side of the card is addressed to “Miss Frances Schenk”. Also note the “made in Germany” stamp on the left side.
