Greetings from Boston Library’s Collection of 25,000 Vintage Postcards

While that has sadly ended, Boston continues the postcard fascination this year with the release of the Boston Public Library’s extensive collection of US state tourist cards from the 1940s-50s, all onto Flickr. The collection includes 894 from Texas, a staggering 3,000 from Florida, and a hometown variety of 808 from Boston itself. Almost all states are represented, each with their own Flickr gallery and Creative Commons permissions to allow for greater sharing.
