Postcards were a chance to share special experiences and pictures with friends and family back home. A way to say we’re here and this is what we are seeing and doing.
While our collection is small, we wanted to share with you what those who served shared with their family and friends back home.
We are always interested in increasing our collection so that we may share with everyone this glimpse into our past. If you have postcards there are three ways in which you could share them with us:
1) a direct donation to the museum
2) loan them to us, we will scan them and return the originals to you
3) if you have a digital image you can send it to us at our email address: LynMuseum@gmail.com
