Monroe Hope and His Postcards
One of Monroe Hope’s favorite ways of sending mail was by sending postcards with his picture on the front. There was typically some sort of message that was probably better understood if the person really knew Monroe well–especially with his sense of humor. Below are two examples of those postcards.
- Monoe’s postcard to his Aunt.
- The back side of the post card to his Aunt. (see above)
This card was sent to Ethel Woodington before they were married. She called him “Hopie.”

Whence We Come 
I love the simple mailing address. The postal stamp shows it was mailed, so that address must have worked.
