A simple 'Seth and Annie' with no other information, so I must rely on my psychic sense to find something out about them.  I sense that Seth was into religion...I see him conducting services in a Christian Science church.  Annie played the piano and wrote religious songs that she would perform at the church.  They had two kids.

Time spent with cats is never wasted.

Here aree a few postcards featuring cats.  The first two are not the cute adorable cats as in the current culture, these cats are a bit edgier.  Is anyone familiar with this meme, or know about when these cards would have been put out? 

The third one is German, I think reinemachen means professional office cleaning or something similar

The first two are unused, the third is dated Munich Oct 10 1929.  I'd post the back but the ink is faded and the scan is illegible.  It wasn't mailed, it must have been hand delivered or mailed inside an envelope.  It's from an older relative to a child.

Most unique, PB.  Of course they made those dogs playing cards and smoking cigars illustrations but these with the cats are really something.  Very nice detail on them.

I've been on The Toonerville Trolley train before into the nothingness of the U.P.   
Never realized they copped the name!
