Postcard of the Day





Today's Postcard of the Day is in honor of the post I did over at [livejournal.com profile] vintage_ads, where today people are posting ads with busses (along with ads with fads).  As I show there, I had the Matchbox of this bus as a kid.  As I didn't say there, one time I was holding it up outside Great Aunt Louise's, on The Paseo in KC, and a bus just like it drove by behind it.  :)

It's hard to believe that Greyhound travelers ever looked like those Greyhound travelers!

I think I had that matchbox bus, too.

I'm thinking that this was the postcard with the passenger you thought was some sort of supernatural evil wraith that had photobombed the image.

Or was that a passenger train with that same elevated split-level observation thing?

A passenger train! And wow, that was a while ago. Lemme see if I can find it for ya....

Oh wait, it was back when my pix were hosted by Photobucket, but they blew that up. Yeah, there were little clusters of people on the platform, and one of them wasn't far from Death in its hood, scythe in hand.
