When we're on the road, I look for old postcards of Chicago in Antique shops. At
home, they're too expensive.
Here are a selected few, showing a Chicago you can't see any more.
More to come, if I can find my Garfield Goose postcard.
Here's another site I found (actually
found me) with nationwide postcards!
