Funny Vintage Postcards

I picked up this old postcard at a flea market, I thought it was funny.
The note starts off "nothing doing on the west side of Cusson PA". I can't quite make out the next line.
It is postmarked 1909.

For those of you who collect old postcards - do you look for ones that are used or blank ones?? I've wondered about that. I personally like to read the old notes.

    Cute postcard. Although it looks like that would hurt. Have a great day!

  2. I like the messages too, although it's interesting to me how hard the handwriting is to read.

  6. I mush prefer used ones, especially if there is a clear date. That is a great card!

    Could it be "we will have to play all east of there" ?
