Before Instagram and text messages, there were postcards – those little windows into different worlds that people actually mailed to each other. These 25 postcards from the 1930s are like time capsules, capturing everything from Shakespeare statues in quiet town squares to big band orchestras in their heyday. You'll find movie stills of Clark Gable looking impossibly handsome, family snapshots turned into keepsakes, and scenes from an America that was simpler but no less fascinating. Each one tells a story about what people thought was worth sharing, worth remembering, and worth the nickel it cost to mail. It's amazing how much life these little cardboard rectangles managed to capture.
