Love Mail
Love Mail: Nostalgic Post Cards of My Parents With Poems As Well As Drawings of My Father | Dorothea Chan
10 posts
I took a few items with me home to Canada when we sold our parents' house. My parents wrote love letters to each other in the 1940's and always used beautiful post cards with flowers on it and other pictures. I love these pictures so much that I decided to make a book out of it and to share it with you! My parents also enjoyed to include poems in their letters. My father had the gift to be able to draw. He painted beautiful cards and also paintings. I added a small part to this book. When they met, the 2nd world war was raging. Luckily, Switzerland was spared. On one of the cards you can see a soldier and the card is quite funny! Please enjoy this book!
