Introduction to my blog... The Basin from Federal Hill - Baltimore, MD

Updated Introduction: June 2021 - Recently retired. Finally have time to work on the "fun" things! These are some of my favorite vintage postcards, all per Baltimore, Maryland. I grew up in the area and have memories tied up with many of these locations. To me, each postcard is a precious piece of history, in particular, the cards that were actually sent. Where possible, I try to translate the old handwriting and provide the sender/recipient information as well. You may recognize the name of an old relative or family friend!

ENJOY!




I love this view of "The Basin from Federal Hill". Doesn't it look peaceful? How things have changed!
