Antique Post Cards

We are currently displaying the antique post card collection belonging to Susan Meggenberg.

The collection will remain in the library through the month of October.  So, if you haven’t come in to see these beautiful cards, do so before the end of the month.

Do you have a collection you’d like to share with the public?  Please let us know if you do.  We have an enclosed locked display case, and we’d love to host your collection.
