    Queen City is Cincinnati. And we often see that type of carved Indian box here. A popular 1970s import.

    Is there anything on the back? Sometimes the small details like the stamp boxes can provide clues.

    Also it talks about postage being two cents.

    I have no problem accepting 1991 as the date... an old-timey drawing is all. I was hoping it might be an intaglio, but no such luck.

    All is fair when trying to get the upper hand with children.

    As the father of a modern day 6 year old, I'll agree with that !

    It's now the bomb bunker under the state capitol building.

    Real photo postcard of "Sampans, Wailoa River, Hilo, Hawaii" picked up by my grandad when he was serving on a US Navy S-Boat (a very small submarine by today's standards) in the early 1920's.

    When you registered, did you open the email from the admin? I think something went wrong with your registration.

    Recently added this real photo postcard to my hoard. It appears to be a group of laborers. Any clues to what work they did? Quite a few children/young adults in the group. Unfortunately this card wasn't postally used and I believe it dates to between 1900 and 1910.

    What does the back look like? The man in the center is holding an implement. May provide a clue (if someone recognizes.) Looks like a poker to my eye.
