Front and back scans of a historic postcard of the first post office in Falmouth, Mass.<hr />Back handwritten message reads:<br /><br />Dear Edith -<br /><br />Good trip & good weather; expect I leave here the last of the week for Bridgewater. I'll be glad to go too. Menauhan doesn't look very good to me (for the first time). Perhaps because none of the old friends are here.
