At the end of the 19th century, Congress allowed postcards to be mailed for a mere penny. Coupled with Kodak’s affordable folding camera, a craze of the most outlandish, bizarre and hilarious postcards ensued. This fascinating collection offers an oddly personal and intimate perspective of an era that has unfairly been categorized as prudish and sober. 192 p. 180 photos. 7x9” paperback.
