Russell L. Swigert 1917 proposal art  Postcard

Russell L. Swigert 1917 proposal art Postcard

My Grandpa Swigert's ink drawing of him proposing to Grandma dated May 5, 1917. They married later August 22, 1917. Their farm was at the intersection of four Knox County townships: Galesburg, Cedar, Orange, Knox (counter clockwise on the map). The farm itself was in Cedar Township. They had field corn, hogs, chickens all which I remember. I do not remember when they had cows, but mum does. I do not remember when they had horses and neither does mum, but, they dated in a horse and buggy era. I remember the large white farmhouse my grandpa's father had built. I have a picture of the previous 'homestead' house from the 1800s. I remember grandma holding me on her lap as she was listening to her neighbours gossiping on the party line. My grandparents met at the Knox County Fair where my grandpa began flirting with grandma as she was riding the merry-go-round. They were born in 1895 and 1896. www.zazzle.com/markewesterfield 2024.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for. I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording. Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
