Launching The Postcard Collection

The Postcard Collection includes postcards from the 1940’s that were included in the Helen Tillie Bukowski Collection.

The collection includes postcards Harry Anthony Murosky sent his sister Rita Ann Murosky during WWII when he was based in San Francisco with The United States Army Air Forces. The collection also includes correspondence from Harry Anthony Murosky to his mother Helen Tillie Bukowski during WWII. There are also postcards the extended family sent while traveling. The front and back of postcards have been scanned in high resolution.

 The postcards are organized in chronological order.
