Set: Nothomb
The fourteen postcards shown chronologically on this page
were sent to attorney Albert Nothomb in Liège Belgium
between 11/29/1904 and 4/15/1909.
Six were sent by J.A. Leuenberger (see Set: Leuenberger), two by M. Bliss (see Set: Bliss),
and the remaining six by six different senders.
Nothomb was a postcard collector; Weidner 58 asks "Aimez-vous ces cartes?",
Weidner 130 requests "des vue de paysage s.v.p.", and
the message on Britton & Rey 594 requests postal exchange.
"Thanks. Come again." on Weidner 133 and "Come again" on Müller 6
suggests that Nothomb visited California around the time of the 1906 earthquake.
Post-quake cards.

Weidner 133, postmarked 5/04/1906, just over two weeks after the earthquake.
Surprisingly, the message makes no mention of the quake;
possibly Nothomb was visiting when it happened.
- Weidner 202, postmarked 10/22/1906.
