Wish You Were Here, from Reg Manning

 

Here's a Reg Manning 'Travelcard', this one designated 8-41or 1B-H1561, take your pick. They were called Travelcards because there are fill-in-the-blanks on the reverse for the sender to enter the date and time and where they were at that moment on their journey. Manning's Travelcards were printed by Curteich out of Chicago, and distributed throughout the southwest by Lollesgard Specialty of Arizona. Since these were published in 1941, you find a lot in unused condition since pleasure trips were about to pretty much go out the window as soon as the US joined the war in December.
