Unusual caption on postcard -- Eva's Truck Stop

This card depicts a Pan-Am truck stop, Eva's Truck Stop in Attalla, Alabama.   I would date it as 1930's to 1940's.   It has the most unusual caption on the back of the card that I've seen:

"Clean rooms, showers, Pan-Am Service, home-cooked foods, 'Patronizing us is like making love to a widow - you can't overdo it.'"

Vintage Linen Postcards - New York City - Times Square

Linen postcards are a wonderful starting point for a postcard collector. They are inexpensive, colorful, and fun. These linen cards were popular in the 1930's to mid-1940's. They were especially popular as American travel souvenirs - roadside Americana.

These New York City cards are so lovely that I thought you might enjoy them too. You'll see several pictures of Times Square here. Of special note -- the vintage cars and building/advertising signage. Great fun!
