I think Grandpa Lee [Weaver] must have really liked this card; there are two of them, in pristine condition, in his collection. Not sure of what appealed the most, the lady waiting for him for over an hour or the sight of the calf.

Another in Grandpa’s collection of never used cards that just was there. Interesting instructions in the box where the postage stamp is to be placed:
Place the Stamp here. One Cent. For United States and Island Possessions, Cuba, Canada, and Mexico. Two Cents for foreign.

“From Aunt Cate [Catherine Elizabeth Deaver Weaver]. To Lee [G. Weaver]”
Mostly a sign of the times — a post card to say “be home, I am going to call you”. Like the 21st Century text of “did you read my email?”. This card dates from the early 1900s.

Lee Weaver written on pre-printed card in glitter.
No post mark (not mailed). Addressed to Miss Ellora Weaver, St Clare House, Mt Clements, Mich.
Other than this being an old card in the collection, its significance is to reconfirm the address of Grandpa Lee Weaver’s cousin, Ellora Weaver when she was seeking treatment at the Mineral Baths in Mount Clemens. The script could be Grandpa’s, but is not quite right. The addressing of the card is definitely his handwriting and the two are not the exact same.

“Lem Weaver”
Apparently, someone was trying to tell Great Grandpa Weaver [Lemuel Weaver] that he was quite special. I cannot tell for sure whose handwriting is on the back of the card.

From when Grandpa Lee [Weaver] was living in Akron just after finishing at Cleary Business College.
