Drinking Absinthe at The Old Absinthe House circa 1909

Occasionally one finds a surprise on the written side of a vintage postcard.

This 1909 Postcard featuring The Old Absinthe House is a fairly common vintage postcard, but the real gem, was this written description of absinthe served at The Old Absinthe House:

 "Absinthe is a great French drink, this is the only place in this country where they drip it, Holes are worn in the marble, an inch deep."
