I found a stash of really old postcards. Inspired by the wonderful Twitter account @PastPostcard I thought I’d post them here now and again. It’s fascinating to get these glimpses of worlds and people gone by.

 

Random quote of the day:

“No writer ever wrote exactly what he wanted to write, because there was never anything inside himself, anything purely individual that he did want to write. It’s all reaction of one sort or another.”

—Raymond Chandler, letter to Charles Morton, October 28, 1947
