A long-lost penny postcard found at a Michigan antique show has made its way to its intended recipient nearly 73 years later.
"I went this year to the Flat Rock Speedway antique show— I'm not really a collector. I just pick up little pieces of neat little history. And there was a stack of postcards. They were all in pretty good shape," said Florios.
Bob Brownson grew up in River Rouge, Michigan in the 1940s. His mother, he was proud to say, was the first woman elected to the school board there. That handwriting is preserved on a postcard that his mother sent many years ago while attending a school board convention in Boston, Massachusetts. The postcard, which was sent from the Boston area on October 5, 1949, is now back in the Boston area, where Brownson lives today. It’s a full-circle moment — all thanks to Florios.
