Old Postcards

Old postcards are collectables. I just found this image of a 1909 postcard of the hospital and nurse's quarters in Corry, PA. I found it because this is the small town I was born in and I am always looking at things about Corry.



It is like viewing a small part of history of the town I was born in. Which is fun to me. Gee, how much more fun would it be if it had been a postcard with a photo of my grand mother's brother who had a major influence in building up the hospital in Corry.
