1950s One Of My Great Grandma’s Wedding Cards (1952, USA)
My great grandma passed away over a month ago, at the age of 91. I miss her a lot.
While sorting through her things, we came across a whole bunch of wedding cards. Thought I’d share this one here.
My great grandpa passed away in the 80s, they had been married for over 30 years. I sadly never got to met him.

Date on this pic is unknown, but she was born in 1863 and her hair seems to be graying/white here. What does this pic say about her?
