This postcard consisted entirely of my name, printed in large capital letters by me, age 4+. (Well, and a preprinted image of an old-fashioned oven/stove, with the aption “What’s Cookin?”)

I waffled about whether to even include this in the family-letters collection, but ended up deciding to err on the side of completeness.

The address side of the postcard has three small drawings labeled “Rock,” “Paper,” and “Scissors.” I suspect that I drew those; Marcy’s little margin drawings are usually more skillfully drawn than these.
