Austin, Insane Asylum

Austin, Insane Asylum

Yes, there was a time when hospitals (and postcards) could be called that.  Google will tell you what came next.  As for the card — and you can barely make this out in the scan — it’s “unused” but covered in raised dots similar to Braille writing.  We very much doubt these were on the card at the beginning but do not know how they got there or if they represent anything.  So, Grade: 5
