Book excerpt: The Pennsylvania capital city has dynamic architecture and a remarkable skyline, beautiful parks, and important transportation routes along the mighty Susquehanna River near the middle of the state. Learn why the city thrived during the 19th century due to its location, commerce, and leading citizens. See the government buildlings and many street scenes as they are portrayed on over 400 postcards of the 20th century. Tourism emerged here with the opening of the Pennsylvania Turnpike in the 1950s. A concise explanation of postcard history defines the styles, postmarks, and popularity of the cards shown. This beautiful state and its political center are well documented in this handsome souvenir and historical reference.

Book excerpt: Mifflin County Historical Society author, Forest K. Fisher, presents the history and evolution of the picture postcard and its significance as a medium of communication in For Just a Penny, Historic Mifflin County Postcards. In Fisher's tenth book detailing local history from a central Pennsylvania county founded in 1789, the author uses local vintage postcards and historic images throughout the 130-page publication. Whether colorful, hand-tinted images or aged sepia-tone real photo postcards, both are prized by collectors. Many examples of these come from the archives of the county historical society, while other postcards were loaned from area collectors, as well as from the author's personal collection. Fisher also brings along his connection to the family photographic business, The Kepler Studio, Lewistown, PA, and its large collection of classic images from 60 years in the commercial photographic business, 1923-1983. Using this primary source, a brief pictorial lesson is presented on how to date a real photo postcard or RPPC, using examples from his family's photographic studio collection.One feature illustrates exaggeration or fantasy real photo postcards. Examples of this novelty postcard style might show a fisherman reeling in a canoe-sized trout or farmers harvesting corn the size of oak logs. Today we would say, "Oh, that's been Photoshopped." But a century ago postcards of this genre, often produced for tourist consumption, had to be accomplished in the photographer's darkroom. For Just a Penny shows exactly how this was accomplished. It's as much art as science, not to mention a slightly twisted sense of humor came in handy.A book like this cannot do justice to historic images when presented in grey scale or black and white. For Just a Penny is published in full color semi-gloss pages from cover to cover, giving the reader a glimpse of almost 120 years of postcard history, with a Mifflin County, Pennsylvania slant.Step back with the Mifflin County Historical Society and author Forest K. Fisher to glimpse the social media of a bygone age, when messages to friends and loved-ones could be sent for just a penny.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lenni Lenape called this place gueno-sheiki-hacki-ing, meaning "beautiful or peaceful valley." Incorporated in 1850, Conshohocken's colorful history had its beginnings as Native American territory prior to 1684, when William Penn purchased the land from the Tammany people. Soon Quakers purchased land, built homes, and opened mills. Conshohocken begins with tales and images of early history and continues with rare views that capture some of the majestic mansions built by the founding fathers, the tree-lined avenues with trolleys and horse-drawn carriages, the firehouses and train station and schools, and the many families and faces that have brought Conshohocken to life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1800s, postcards of Indianapolis began appearing in mailboxes throughout the country. Since that time, the many prominent monuments, buildings, and parks of the Hoosier capital have been featured on countless cards. Using an impressive collection of these images, author W.C. Madden takes the reader on an historic journey through Indianapolis from 1890 to 1950, providing a visual history of the development of the city. Indianapolis experienced great growth during the first half of the 20th century, which gave rise to innovative art and architectural structures, many that serve as the subject of postcards featured here. The Soldiers and Sailors Monument, the Indiana World War Memorial, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Union Station, and Claypool Hotel, to name a few, are all highlighted.
