Antique Postcard 1911 Belated Travellers Hillsboro Oregon Davidson Bros RPPC
Social History: A delightful, conversational message from "Soxie" to her sister, Mrs. M.E.G. Goss, in Seattle:
"March 21st 1911. Hello Sis:- Oh gee but we got a Rain storm today sure. And blowing gee its fierce. Hows everything above. Fine and dandy I suppose. Best love to you all. Gee whiz I haven't even had a postal card from you this week yet. But I suppose your so busy. Love from Soxie"
The frequent use of "Oh gee" and "gee whiz" provides a charming glimpse into the casual American slang of 1911.
