Been cleaning up this QSL Card with PS Pro as the text is pretty interesting. The originalhad the call letters across it so it was very hard to read the scan.
Anyway I thought I would share it with you. The card was from 9BMU

Hi Karl,

A very fine business QSL card, tnx for sharing.

I really get a kick out of the artwork and description of the eariler QSL cards.
Your gentleman was most through in his write-up, guess you have a great deal to be proud of if you scratch built a station.

Would you mind emailing me the image, it does not fully display here.

I will mail it to you, but for the benefit of others, use the scroll bar at the bottom of the card and you can see it all. I learned the hard way too......

Very interesting reading. Thanks. I assume REV Feedback was Reverend Feedback and not reverse feedback taking it in context with Miss Milliamp.

Another way to get the picture is to right click on it and save it to my pictures and then open it in Microsoft Paint. At least that worked for me.

You can save it in My Pictures as a jpg image and that works too.  You can zoom in to make the text more readable.

100% zoom displays the entire image at the same text size as the BB display.

Thanks for posting this, Carl. It's always interesting to see such correspondence from a time when a courteous confirmation was just as important as the communication itself.

Interesting thing - when you scroll the image, it scrolls the text of your posting, too. Had to look twice.
