Postcard

Publisher not identified (marked on message side [K] semi-photo)
Postmarked June 22, 1908
Item/Collection Note: Postcard makers didn't let a chance to make a profit slip by them. Leap Year cards made money and were "trade-bringers." Did the bold young lady pictured in this card win her man?
