"Father is here...
...he's as fat as a pig"
Postcards from Maine: 1900-1920

  Father is Here

Deborah H. Gould

A collection of messages on cards postmarked in Maine between 1900-1920. Some are richly detailed while others are sparse; they can be terribly unsophisticated or surprisingly curious and funny. In this compilation, there are three written in code, one in shorthand, and even one in mirror writing! Others are examples of classic one-liners, dreadful puns, and puzzling ramblings. All in all, it’s a journey back one hundred years, a trip to the Maine of the early 1900s.
