Description

Photographic postcard featuring a photograph of the alleged first female resident of Shaunavon, name unknown. Also Rose Rose (nee Hipfner) and Anna Hipfner are pictured. The 2 are sisters. The pool hall is pictured in the background. Someone has written “1914” in pen on the upper left corner but the postmark is 1938. Postcard is addressed to Miss Anna Hipfner, Watrous, Manitou Beach, Saskatchewan. Text is: Dear Anna, Just a line and this is all I can find in the line of post-card. Hope you get a good laugh out of it. Got a letter from Agnes last night - that they started last Sunday and had to turn back on account of hard rain so will be coming straight here next Sat if nothing happens and won’t be in Regina till later in the week as they are going to Weyburn first. Herb may stay till they do come if he doesn’t get a free ride home . He and I are fine. Ma
