Veterans ToDay and Yesterday - GAR - Memorial or Decoration Day - vintage postcard

In times past, it was traditional to send colorful postcards in celebration of the various holidays or celebrated events. This vintage postcard is an early 1900's example of a card for Decoration Day, now more commonly known as Memorial Day. Labeled as "ToDay and Yesterday", it pictures two veteran soldier's in uniform. At the left is an older Civil War soldier, at the right is a younger soldier, probably of the World War I era.
