Front message: "Send me a postcard from Grace E. Gott" Postcard from Grace E. Gott (1896-1920) to her grandmother, Eliza Sawyer Butler, Mrs. Israel Gott (1847-1924) Grace E. Gott married Charles Lewellyn McKay on December 16, 1915. She signed the postcard as Grace E. Gott so archivists conclude that it was sent before that date. Judging by her handwriting, it is probable that she wrote the card c. 1908-1910. G.W. Morris printed their tinted collotype postcards in Germany in the early years of their existence (1901-1922). Archivists have therefore date the postcard as c. 1908.
