Aunt Gertie lived in Pittsfield, the city in the Berkshire Mountains of western Massachusetts.

By 1934, this agricultural area of streams and mills (once a center of Merino sheep-raising) had become an important industrial city where the General Electric Company was born.

At the end of August, Gertie sent a postcard to her nephew and his wife in Philadelphia.

Aunt Gertie had seen the nephew and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Liveley, during a trip that included a visit to “the shore”.

We cannot tell whether or not the Liveleys had hosted the shore excursion, but Aunt Gertie enjoyed seeing them there or in Philadelphia.

At her leaving, the Liveleys presented a plant to Aunt Gertie, and she reports that it survived well the return trip to Pittsfield.

The postcard, first published by C.W. Hughes and Company of Mechanicsville, New York, is illustrated with a view of Onota Lake in Pittsfield.

One hopes that the Liveleys were pleased to receive the postcard and that they (and Aunt Gertie) retained happy memories of the summer of 1934.
