An oldy but a goody .....

I must say, I am extremely happy with the fervour with which people have latched on to 80 Postcards to Adolph. It has been a success from many standpoints so far - not only has it created a renewed interest in checking the mail for my parents, it has also allowed them to connect with people that they have not heard from in years.

Olive Schurek - Dad's cousin - sent through these fantastic postcards from 1920! Yes 1920! And to add to the excitement, the postcards are of pin-up girls! So as you might expect, at this point I will have to issue a warning - the following content is for mature audiences only, parental discretion is advised.


This first one is a little racy - she's showing some serious mid-calf, and look at how she teases the audience by putting her fully clothed toe in the water.



This next one is very saucy with some significant mid-thigh showing. The photographer taunts the audience here by using the table to almost cut the girl in half.



Definitely a fav, this one shows a private moment in the life of a pin-up girl.



Probably the most provacative of the bunch, this postcard has a nice ariel view of her bossom.



And finally, the best for last - this girl pulls out all the stops; she flaunts her body, showing full ankle!!!!



Hope you enjoyed these as much as we did - they are truly a fantastic find!
