Description: |
A silver key is on a key ring with the message The Key to Wealth. Next to it is the holiday greeting, written in verse. The word Xmas is spelled with holly leaves and berries. The back of the postcard includes a message from a young boy who loves James Whitcomb Rileys The Raggedy Man. The message on the back of the postcard reads: 1263 -5th Ave. Grand Rapids, Mich. Dear Mr Riley, I am a little friend of yours. Every evening my father reads your stories to us. My little sisters like Little Orphant Annie best but I like, The Raggedy Man best. I hope you will get better soon and we wish you a Merry Xmas. With Love, John Dregge |
