Ruth Radimersky collection
Scope and Contents
The postcards in this collection were sent between 1935 and 1937 to Ruth Steidte from George Radimersky, a Foreign Language professor at Michigan State College (MSC, now Michigan State University). The postcards are primarily the MSC campus and include buildings and gardens. Postcards of other Michigan locations (Ann Arbor, Battle Creek, East Lansing, Lansing, Marshall, and Olivet) as well as several postcards of Madison, Wisconsin are also part of the collection. Many of the messages on the postcards have been marked over to make them illegible.
