I love this unidentified postcard of a woman pouring a drink of beer in her kitchen!
Sometimes the postcards are formal studio photographs, such as this one of three women from Duluth MN dressed for the cold Minnesota winters.
This postcard is listed in my eBay store here: RPPC POSTCARD WOMEN IN FURS GREAT HATS DULUTH MN
Sometimes a relative or friend captures a photograph in a natural setting like this one:

This photograph lets us see the plight of itinerant farm workers - lots of people living in those bunk houses - probably without running water and electricity!

Living in Minnesota, many of the subjects of the postcards I find are of Scandinavian descent - lots of blonde children. These little girls are especially adorable - take note of their shoes!
