Postcard Friendship Friday - Mystery Church RPPC Religious man

Happy PFF.  I know its Thursday but I sleep in late (ah isn't retirement wonderful) and sometimes forget by Friday afternoon to get a postcard posted.  I have been looking at this postcard for many months wondering which church it is.  Information on the back reads.....The Miller Studio, Cleveland Ohio.  And who the religious man is. Our great leader for PPF is found at

Casey Jones American Folk Hero, Vintage Postcard Jackson Tennessee

Casey Jones is an American hero.  He lived from March 14, 1863 until his untimely death on the Cannonball Express where he was the only casualty of a train collision.  Probably breaking and slowing down the train saved the lives of the passengers. It did not prevent a collision with the freight train.   As a result of his fame is the famous song THE BATTLE OF CASEY JONES.  He is celebrated as a brave engineer, famous in railroad history.  He is buried in Calvery Cemetery in his hometown of Jackson Tennessee.

Embroidered Postcard Made in Spain

I found this postcard a few days ago in an antique/collectible mall.  There were quite a few so I dont think they are all that old.   Embroidered postcards were either made by hand or machine.  I would guess this onewas sewn by machine.  I liked it so bought it so I could go home with something.  It is getting harder to find good unique postcards in the antique stores today.  But I keep looking and find a gem now and then.  How is your postcard shopping going?

Trying to Stay on the Cutting Edge Slideshows!

I see all these slideshows with music ( mostly from uTube )but have been experimenting with Smilebox.  The 4 pictures on the previous post here aren't too exciting. Just a collage. I have another website and I did a postcard slideshow which I thought turned out pretty good.  Just click on Smilebox on lower right hand corner and check it out.

Antique Mall Find - Sewing items with postcard /kit scrapbooking

I found this at an antique/collectibles mall and thought it was a nice idea.  In the packaging there is old lace, ribbon, embroidery thread for a piece of fabric hidden, and more.  What caught me eye was the addition of a postcard. There was a nice label but because the price was on it they removed it without my noticing.   Hummm makes my creative mind working overtime.
