Historical Context & Description
This linen postcard features a humorous illustration of a woman darning her stocking, with a man peering through a window. The caption reads, "Come around and see what I've been doing. It's darned good." The postcard's textured surface and style suggest it dates from the early 20th century, likely between 1930 and 1945.
The back of the postcard is divided, typical of the era, with a space for correspondence and an address. There is no postmark or stamp present, but a handwritten name, "A. F. Pautsch," appears on the address side. The card is in fair condition, with some edge wear and a small tear at the top.
This postcard documents early 20th-century humor and social customs, reflecting the playful communication styles of the time. Surviving examples like this provide insight into the cultural norms and everyday life of the period.
