[ The year ends with a 2, the postage is 6 cents,the UP Postal Service charged 6 cents for postcards between May 18, 1971 and March 2, 1974 (per

This is what's printed at the top:

Hilda signed the card writing: Dear Viola: Tried all day Xmas to get you on the phone! Wanted to tell you Shirley and I are coming on Jan. 7th. Will let you know the time later. I bet you were at one of the children. Hi to Walter & Doris! & all the (severt ??) ones. Lovely, Hilda
Also, my dad was wrong. Viola's middle name was Mary, not Marie.
