Sleepytime [1979]

From our collection of old postcards ...

Did you set your clocks back last night?

In most of North America we set our clocks back an hour last night when daylight saving time ended. So, an extra bit of sleepytime this morning! This old postcard seems to fit the occasion. The art work is by Beth Hay and the card was published by Celestial Seasonings Herb Teas in 1979.

Thank you for stopping by John's Island.

    Sitting beside an cozy fire like that would bring on the sleepy time at any time during the day.

    Ah! I do remember seeing this on tea boxes! It is a good one! I certainly appreciated that extra hour of sleep last night. My sister, grandparents, and I had to leave for the Dubuque train show at 4 AM this morning!
