Are those perforations around the edge? For any reason in particular that you can tell?

Yep, little holes, which were sometimes built into cards in the early-20th-century heyday, particularly leather cards, in anticipation of people wanting to stitch them together. I recall reading that sometimes a string of rawhide would come with a leather card.

Hmmm...my dad (born in 1922) used to use "dickens" as an expletive. I don't think I've heard anyone else use the expression.

And I'd never heard of leather postcards before!
