When documenting antique postcards, it’s important not to overlook the Internet and its many resources. An example of successful use of this resource occurred recently when we documented a vintage postcard with unusual subject matter with which we were not very familiar: the German Imperial Army and, specifically, the role of black soldiers from Africa in it. All we had to go on when we started was that the old postcard was postmarked in 1914 in Potsdam, Germany.
