ReplyDeleteI love them. The second belongs to a serie I have got quite a few postcards from.
DeleteI like the dancing women on the first. Great celebratory cards.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI think they don't dance, but follow Mrs. Suslova and run to study at the university.
DeleteI like this idea better.
DeleteThat first is so happy! I feel my education is lacking, not having heard of Jane Cooke Wright before today.
ReplyDeleteWe learn a lot through postcards, don't we?
DeleteTo become a doctor after one year... !
ReplyDeleteWell, we do not know all she had previously studied! :)
