It's Orful Being in Love



This valentine post card has a little mystery to it. On the picture side, you can see what is left of two erased words. Written over the boy, is the name Alexander. Written over the girl is the name Mildred. So, we need to figure out, did Alexander write these words and then erase them before the card was sent? Or did Mildred receive the post card and then erase the names so her sisters wouldn't tease her?

Sent February 12, 1917 from Lancaster Ohio to Mildred from Alexander Brenner.
Card is Whitney Made, Worchester, Mass.
