Slovak Postcards

These postcards are from my father Anthony Kostelnicek's archive. The fifth card has a hand written message on it's backside indicating that they are from 1950. It can be read by mouse-over. All other cards have not been posted. The captions below each card are from the upper left corner of the card's reverse side. Translation into English was done by cousin Alan Bickel.
