<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 2741718, member: 1476"]It's a RPPC (Real Photo Post Card.) May have been printed by an amateur or small town photographer. Looks like a generational family grouping taken at the family home. And likely done to send to family members out West or back East. It can be dated by the design of the stamp box. AZO with four triangles pointing up is 1904-1918. Given their clothing, likely later in that period. Which makes it also possible that it was taken for a male family member away in World War I service.</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
