This is postmarked Dec 31, 1-AM 1907 from St. Louis MO

Addressed to:

Miss Verna Loonam (I think, post mark partially covers)
St. Charles, MO
c/o Bell Telephone Ofc.

Says simply:

A Happy New Year-
Veneta

PS–I am excited to report that a family member (from Ireland!) has found my site and has given me some information about the card. 

New Year’s Greetings – this card would have been addressed to Loverne Loonam.   The other one As time Rolls By was addressed to her sisiter Mary R Loonam.  The sisters died in the 1950s. They were spinsters.

I have included the backs of these two cards. (One is in post below.)

I cannot read the full post-marked date on this one, but it does say Dec 31 and is stamped Curryville.  It is addressed to:

Miss M. R. Loonam
4509 Washington Ave
St. Louis, MO

It reads:  Hope you will be up soon. 

Your friend,
J.K.B.

Dear Friend Rose,

Perhaps if the weather is not to cold and mama is well enough to be alone Mrs. Stock and I will try and come up Sunday the 2nd.  Mama is allway sick lately.  I never can tell from one day to another.  Hoping you are getting along nice.  Wishing you all a Happy New Year.  Your friend, Mary
