Postkarte
Kurzfassung:
It may be hard to believe, but there actually was a time when the postcard image was not a cliche. To reach it, you'll have to set your clock back to the end of the nineteenth century, when an Act of Congress allowed Americans to mail a card for just one cent. A few years later, Kodak introduced an easy-to-use and affordable folding camera that put postcard power into the hands of ordinary citizens, setting off a craze.
Anmerkung:
A selection of these cards was first exhibited under the title Postmarked at the K.S. Art Gallery, New York, May 2004
