Contributing Member Regis Posted October 21, 2007 Contributing Member Report Posted October 21, 2007 I picked up this 1907 leather post card and a local auction. 1st I'd ever seen. Seems to have help up pretty well. Johanna knows where East Pittsburg is. Quote
Ambassador Beaverslayer Posted October 21, 2007 Ambassador Report Posted October 21, 2007 That's pretty cool Regis, I've never seen anything like it either. Ken Quote
nomi Posted October 21, 2007 Report Posted October 21, 2007 They do show up occasionally. Do a search on Leather Postcard on ebay and you can normally find some for sale. Not very expensive either. - Noel Quote
Moderator Johanna Posted October 22, 2007 Moderator Report Posted October 22, 2007 Is that Pittsburgh Pa. or Va. ? Can't tell. I'm riding in the Honda somewhere in Missouri, coming home from the show. If it is Pa., it is missing the "h". I read somewhere that Pgh. tried to get rid of the "h" once, but the local people made them put it back. Neat, Regis! Thanks for sharing! Johanna Quote

Thanks for sharing!Johanna Johanna, a stupid question here, but.... if your in a Honda, in the middle of Missouri, how are you able to post to the forum???? This kinda tells me you got a NICE laptop with some sort of fancy wireless web thingy. I'd be interested to know what your using for this amazing feat of posting to the forum from a moving vehicle in Missouri. Ken Quote
Moderator Johanna Posted October 23, 2007 Moderator Report Posted October 23, 2007 My laptop will go on the battery about 2-3 hours before I need to plug it in. They sell AC adapters that plug into the cigarette lighter, but I don't have one. I have a card from Verizon that lets me get online in broadband anywhere I can get a cell phone signal. So, yes, I was looking at the forum while my husband was driving... piece of cake. Johanna Quote
Members CowboyDon Posted January 17, 2009 Members Report Posted January 17, 2009 The city on the card is New Brighton Pa. a western Pa. town. - Very neat card. Thank you for posting it. Quote
Timd Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Johanna, that is Pittsburg, PA without the H, even on the postmark. Quote
Members a kind texan Posted May 28, 2012 Members Report Posted May 28, 2012 That is so cool. And by the looks of it, it is a gift others would like to buy to! Quote
