Description
This is a charming 1908 Real Photo Postcard (RPPC) featuring a sepia-toned photograph of a young child posing outdoors with a wheelbarrow. The handwritten caption reads, "Would you like a ride? Miles." The card was postmarked in Elko, Nevada, on March 22, 1908, and addressed to Miss Mary Koling in Alva, Oklahoma. Notably, the word "TERR" (short for "Territory") appears in pencil above the address and is not part of the original postmark or mailing. Features : Authentic Real Photo Postcard (RPPC). Sepia-toned photograph capturing nostalgic early 20th-century life. Clear 1-cent Benjamin Franklin green stamp and postmarks from both Nevada and Oklahoma. Whimsical handwritten caption and sender's note. A glimpse into history shortly after Oklahoma became a state in 1907. While the "TERR" marking may have been added later, this postcard remains a unique piece of history, perfect for collectors of RPPCs, postal history, or vintage childhood-themed postcards. It is in good condition with light wear consistent with its age.
