There are lots of interesting items that one can find for sale, of memorabilia of a town’s past. I found something like that recently, and thought readers might find it interesting. It’s a postcard of Fairhaven, in Whitewater, from decades ago.
(I’ve no connection to Fairhaven, except to know of it as a senior care residence in Whitewater. More about Fairhaven is available online, at www.fairhaven.org.)
The postcard is in excellent condition, is unused, and bears the motto, “Fairhaven — Where Life is Added to Years.” It’s from the Artvue Post Card Company, 225 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York.
(I would guess that it dates from the 1950s about fifty years ago, as this was apparently the heyday of Artvue’s publishing. [Note: My initial guess was that the postcard was from the 1950s, but someone kindly wrote and said Fairhaven’s not that old, so I’m on a revised guess, now. My original theory remains, only in strikethrough.])
