Suzanne @http://coloradolady.blogspot.com/is a our wonderful hostess for this weekly party. Go on over and check out all of the unique vintage items.Since its the 4th of July this week, I have a postcard that my Mother-In-Law gave me several years ago. It was sent to her sister Ruth in July of 1926. I believe it was sent by a nephew. He actually toured the home of Betsy Ross. The card is difficult to read but I also am sending the address side. The small lettering says "Betsy Ross House where the first American Flag was made, located off Arch near Third Street, Phildelphia, PA.
Hope everyone has a fantastic holiday.

I am glad you kept this card. It is very interesting and has a lot of history attached. Be safe over the 4th.
It is so neat that you have the card to share. A real treasure and with special family history. It was fun to see the Niagra Falls PO stamp. Have a great Fourth of July!
