The back of the postcard is handwritten and reads: 

Transcription of message (postmark May 26, 1921, Denver, CO):
Alice my dear:
Whatever is the matter, have you found some one you love better? Believe me you had not better let me find it out. I have written you twice with no reply. Had my address on both of them & they did not come back & I am so afraid some one is ill. Do write me real soon. We are all well here. Leslie writes that mama’s condition shows no improvement. I hunted the house over for a postcard as I had just one 1¢ stamp & found this you know where & that perhaps it would stir up old “memories” & you might like to gaze upon your hubbie in uniform too otherwise in his “Union” suit. Come & take a ride with me on old 381. — I have got about over [???] & am missing “hives.” You know I would not feel natural if it wasn’t something. Do write soon. Heaps much love & kisses, Edith.


The sender mentions the fact that the recipient might like to see the card because it shows her husband in uniform. There is a streetcar conductor named Forrest L. Schork living in Denver as of the 1920 census, The card is address to Mrs. Forrest Schork! Forrest was also living in Denver and working as a streetcar conductor there in 1910.
