Kicking off our first Past Post feature is this postcard of the Seattle Waterfront from 1906. You may recognize this image from the VS.org banner graphic. You can see that it was missent to Waverly, Nebraska when it was actually meant to go to Waverly, Iowa. Remember, there were no zip codes at that time. It reads:
