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.

Vintage Postcards

I recently came across the blog The French Factrice, who hosts Postcard Friendship Friday.
I love old postcards. I love the slightly disjointed wording, that I'm sure made sense at the time. I love to read what they were writing about in the early 1900's.
This one is postmarked 1913, and talks about washing items for Till's hope chest.
This postcard is part of the Daffydill series, which I find very amusing. I have a few others I will have to dig out...
