Hartford, Trinity College (Connecticut, USA)
Among old Connecticut postcards, this might have a conventional view but a distinctly poignant message from a young man to his “wonderful sweetheart”. Why poignant? Well, the lady who received the card had a less-common name, so we Googled her, and it’s clear that things didn’t work out quite as he had hoped. It’s one of those times when we almost want to scream “Why Not??” (Too late now!) Card was mailed in 1923. Stamp and postmark are there. Very minor postal creasing. Grade: 1
