Ah, that's brilliant! :D Is there anything written on it? Even if there's not, it's still lovely to think about all the years that postcard has lived through. ^^

Go back to the link. There's a "next" (also a 2 for page 2) under the image. This is the backside of the postcard. The message area is signed with the initials KE. According to the message written in the face page of the book it was a gift to Eleanor Denney from Katherine Edelman. The book is the "Four Winds of Eirinn" by Ethna Carbery (Anna Johnston McManus). I actually Googled both Eleanor Denney and Katherine Edelman and found out that both of these women were also poets.

Aha! :D Ack, I'm sorry for not looking more closely at it myself. -_-' Anyway, how very, very cool! It's lovely when you find little things stuck in time like that :)
