One-hundred years ago today, the United States congress approved the burial of an American Unknown Soldier. Today, the centennial of that legislation will most likely go unnoticed by most, but not here at Postcard History. Give these heroes a salute!
Real-photo postcards are primary source historical records. They are the next best thing to seeing the subject with your own eyes. In some places in the American west the postcards made by itinerant photographers are the only records still available. Johnson, Arizona, is one such place.
