PICTURE POSTCARDS
Sir-When reading the serial story "All This and Heaven Too," in your issue of December 27 I noticed that a French woman, speaking in New York in the year 1848 referred to "the pretty picture postcard." Were there postcards -and picture postcards-in 1848? I had thought both came much later, and picture postcards not until the late ‘eighties. Can you or amy reader inform me whether this reference to picture postcards by Rachel Field is an anachronism?
