Postcards from the Past

Came across a stack of these at an antique shop last week. They had some that were both blank and written on, but I loved reading all the messages, and this one made me laugh. This is from 1925 and my mom found one from 1909!

1985 Called...; Polaroids ≠ Discretion

It would seem using a polaroid camera is akin to birthing an alien baby. On vacation last week, while making instamatic memories, passersby looked slack- jawed and almost horrified at the sight of the blocky thing. One elderly woman even whipped around and exclaimed "I didn't know they still made those things!" I guess that's why they no longer do..., but I'm glad I braved the gawking and took these pictures which I can now look at and pretend I visited via time travel. Another blast from the past post soon to come.
