The drawing is kind of creepy too.
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

Yes!  It would make a nice pen name.

I think that name is on the Declaration of Independence.

Dear every body.
  Arrived here last night.
The place fairly dazzled my
eyes.  Been having rainy
weather down here all the
time.  We have an electric
iron on trial.  Say if you
want to buy any tomatoes to
can Cecil has some whoppers,
large as grandmas.  They're
picking Sat.  What's every body
doing and how's Miss Jonesy.
If the sun shines and if 
I don't get out of space
I'll go on writing but looks I'm out of space
already and no sun.  Betty

I really like the artwork on this one

This place surely had a terrific band in 1940

Three of those men look similar.  Triplets?

The building that is there now is a Chase Bank.  Right behind that (south) is now a PNC bank but it was different when it was first built. It is quite dangerous to walk next to when the wind is blowing hard. The building is curved towards the base and people get blown into the street.

About one block north of there is Daley Plaza.  That is where the Picasso Statue is.
