This postcard is an aerial photo of my father's family's cotton gin. I'm not sure of the year...probably in the 50s or 60s. It was located in S. Texas near a small town called Alice.

Aimeee! How wonderful to meet you! Your father owned an cotton gin? That is just fascinating. I can't wait to start visiting your blog regularly and hearing all of your stories!
Happy PFF! It's my first visit to you as well. Wow, look at all that wide open space nexy to the mill. sigh! Have a great day!
Thanks for stopping by, Marie & Janeen! I believe the gin was owned by my father's father and uncle...might have been grandfather. I can't remember.
What an interesting piece of family history you have... Hopefully you'll be able to find out more about the background of the "Gin"... Thanks for sharing...

I like your postcard. I collect postcards of the lumber industry in Canada because that is one of my ancestors' main occupations.
