Amanuensis Monday - 1909 Postcard : Long Beach, California

Amanuensis Monday is an ongoing series created by John Newark at Transylvanian Dutch. An Amanuensis is a person employed to write what another dictates or to copy what has been written by another.

I have posted the story about our new cousin Steve (genealogy angel) sharing an amazing gift with the family. He sent us a package filled with letters, postcards, and photographs. Enclosed we found this postcard of sand sculptures. Very interesting subject!

This marvelous work is made on the beach of sand. We watched the man make them, it is wonderful and natural.
