I recently took a dynamic sketching class and decided to do a visual map of Gideon the Ninth as my final project! I'm really happy with how it turned out!

Medium: micron pen, grey toned comic markers, and white gel pen on toned paper

I wanted to share them because I love them, and maybe also to get some help on reading them cause some people have just...really illegible writing. Haha.

POSTCARD #1: Nov. 22, 1933 from El Dorado, ARK.

Front:

Drawing of the corner view of a large white building with lots of windows, with the small text "U.S. Post Office and Federal Building, El Dorado, ARK." in the upper right corner.

Back:

Addressed to Mr. Neil Marsh, Seattle Washington [I blocked out the address, no idea what the ethics are on sharing the addresses of people from almost 90 years ago haha]

Postmark reads "EL DORADO, ARK. NOV 22, 11:30PM, 1933"

I've transcribed the postcard to the best of my ability, with some words I'm not sure about indicated in brackets:

[aligned right] Wednesday

My Dearest - Meant to select you a very pretty Birthday card -- if I didn't get you a letter written -- but since I did neither -- here's just this card to wish you more joy than you've ever known on any birthday, and to wish you many more of 'em _ [Was?] so glad to get your letter (and it's contents) last week _ Wanted ever since to ans. 'specially _ Am sorry tho you sent this much after you'd already send her what you had _ I'm sorry I hadn't written you sooner or at least had known about this and not let you send so much. She's going to apply [other?] to the store I think as her glasses are doing much better she says. We're going for her next week and we'll investigate glasses there again. How much she will -> [continued along top of card] appreciate what big part more you've done _ I'm going to write letter soon _

Love, [??]
