This is my great grandmothers personal collection of his families postcards. He lived in Alden Minn. I believe Alden is in Central Minnisota. I don't know much about postcards so the info given is what I feel is important, if you need other information or pictures than just ask and I will try to accomidate. There are 12 that are postmarked before 1910. 143 of them are postmarked from 1910 to 1919. 20 of them are postmarked from 1920 to 1929. There are 8 that are postmarked from 1930 and on. 44 of them are completely unused with no stamp and no writing on them. Around half of the 234 have writing on them but have no stamp or postmark. I have taken plenty of pictures with the first one being of the postcard collection bood that they are all held in. The book holds about 300 postcards so there is still room for more .I have taken all the rest of the pictures of the book per page as were put in the book. I looked and saw that the majority of them are in cronological order. I assume that the order is by the postmark and not by the day that the postcard was issued. The postcards are mostly of subjects like Christmas, birthdays, Easter, Valentine's Day, New years, and the rest are of landmarks and other places in the US. I am almost possitive that a lot of them are from Sweden so if you have any idea of the origin of any of the cards read more
