This is a postcard postmarked from Fort Oglethorpe, GA. I thought it was an interesting name for a postmark! It is addressed to Mrs. Ted Pitzen in Waukegan, Illinois. Apparently it is from Aux Irene Witek, 9th Company 23rd Regiment 3rd WAAC Training Center, Ft. Oglethorpe, Georgia.
Hello Laurie:
Greetings from Georgia. How are you all. – Fine I hope! I like army life very well so far. Please say hello to the girls. –
Regards – Irene
Sal, So glad to get your letter + know that you have a satisfactory [miand?] . This is Seatoris Hall & I have just furnished his hall suite on the carfurs side – in heart. I have been back in 63-67 + living over happy days with a dear suite mate. Love GB.
Apparently, Ms. Morey collected pictures of landscape scenes. You can see that there are two postmarks on the postcard. The first is Sayre PA at 4pm followed by the postcard being received in Athens, PA at 5:30 – both on April 12, 1906. Under the picture is written Here is another for your album. Mama. I am not sure why the work album is blacker, perhaps it did not fade??
I ordered my Mailer’s Postmark from Bill Porter over at the Olathe Poste. Here is a sample of one of the Mailer’s Postmark Cancels he uses.
