More Vintage Views of Geneva
Strangely, Swiss postcards seem as tidy as that country's inner cities appear--and I'm unsure if this is a good thing…
…so, what’s your take on this, dear readers?
If you’re new to the Erich Sonntag Postcard Collection (hi, my friend R.D., nice to re-connect after all these years), here’s part one:
And then there’s the less-than-subtle suggestion to check out the “About” section with its essays on, well, this little weblog.

Other Geneva Sights—in Colour
Above is Molard Square, and that postcard was sent in summer 1969; below, an undated sccene showing steamers ready for departure on Lake Geneva.

More—from other places—coming soon.
Love it 😊 👍
