Hello All, Just searched through hundreds of German vintage postcards on ebay in the hope of finding one from my hometown in Hesse. While I didn't find what I was looking for, I thought I'd remind all of you family researchers that this is an excellent place to find postcards of German towns from the turn of the last century, before many of the fabulous structures were destroyed by the two wars. My favorites are the ones that have lots of writing on them, including the address of the recipient. Funny that in 1906 German relatives could send a postcard addressed to Mr. K. Ramm c/o Mr. Hinr. Kelling, Davenport, Iowa and it got there without a street address. I guess that was a time where you had to personally pick up your mail at the postoffice. This explains the frequent messages found in old newspapers alerting local citizens that they had a letter or postcard waiting for them. Check it out sometime. On ebay go to Collectibles > Postcards > International Postcards > Germany. Happy hunting!
