When the going gets tough, the tough go shopping...

With Saturday's all-day rain, I didn't go cycling or chasing trains. 
Instead, I went to the postcard show at the Parsippany PAL.  Three hours
of foraging and a fair investment produced some Erie, Lackawanna and even
CNJ history.

I've scanned a dozen postcards for your enjoyment...
