This is a real photo postcard from the Antique Shop in Royalton Minnesota.
I am not sure why only a small part of the postcard was used.
Forest Earl Byiam (Bijiam?) ( Brjiam?) at Five Months weighed 17 1/4 Ibs.
H. Housen ( Hansen?) & Family
This is an Azo Real Photo Postcard, with triangles in the corner of the stamp box so it is from 1904 to 1918.
Thanks for stopping by, do come again:)

He passed away September, 1977 in Homewood, CA (located on the shore of Lake Tahoe).
Byiam = Byron/Byrone?

Very interesting photo and info above.
ReplyDeleteThanks for "the rest of the story" Iggy. He was a cute little guy.
ReplyDeleteI've always found these RPPC's interesting. I have several with a small image, but have never seen one so unbalanced with the image at the bottom. Usually they're at the top of the card.
ReplyDeleteOh, so the surname was Byram. I thought it was Hansen ... Good job there.
ReplyDeleteIggy has found an snail mail address for Forests son. I will send off a copy of the blog today. We will see what happens next:)
