I found this really interesting post over at Mavi Boncuk about a postcard sent from Constantinople to the US from a US expatriate living in the region in 1916. The card is very well researched and the post is just plain outstanding. It’s really cool to happen across something like this on a blog that doesn’t really have anything to do with stamp collecting. Enjoy!
