ANNUAL MEETING
 
PROGRAM AND DISPLAY
POSTCARD COLLECTIONS
Society and Members
 This is an opportunity for members and guests to participate in the Society’s monthly program. Bring in examples of postcards you have collected or saved. Each one tells a story – come prepared to tell yours – about the cards or your collection. View some special postcards from the Society’s collections and hear about early twentieth century Bridesburg photographers William H and Charles Sliker, who printed thousands of postcards documenting the sites and residents of Frankford/NE Philadelphia.
As this is the annual membership meeting, come out, vote for directors, and learn what has been done this past year at the Society – and what is being planned for the future. Then enjoy a behind the scenes tour of our 1930’s building and vast collections.
Refreshments served. Members free; Others $5.00
