A Lucky Christmas

Unfortunately, this card is torn and worn, but I could not resist this beautiful old car for my collection.  On the back is a message written.  Dated Dec. 20, 1909.

Dear Sister,

I hope you all will have a jolly good time at Xmas.  Are you going to roast a goose Xmas.  Did you buy some Xmas candy and nuts.  I hope you will have a good time.  Did Emma R get to see Santa Claus.  Are they going to have an Xmas tree.

It is addressed to Miss Malinde (looks like) Luehr, Marthasville, MO  R. F. D. 1 box 6
