You have got to love the inscription on this card:
Sept 22 — Thought of you and drank 14 beers to your health. Chas, D. S.
A link for information on the 1904 World’s Fair – also known as the Louisiana Purchase Exposition.

Now that is a toast! Haha Happy WW.
14 beers! I can only imagine!
That is a great inscription. I wonder if the beers were the same size as now?
How is drinking 14 beers healthy for anyone LOL
I would have long ago passed out.
Wish I could have been alive to visit that Worlds Fair. Just think of all the new things, now our old things, one would have experienced. As to the message on the card, Pretty bold of him. He must have been a rebel and quite a character! I wonder if it was to his wife??? If so he probably wanted her to know he was enjoying himself and the beer was very good there,LOL. Also the message would be similar to ours today… Having a wonderful time, missing you and wishing you where here….
My WW link for you
What a great postcard. Were the beers smaller back then?
Happy WW~
