Early Morning Danish!

The photos were taken in the town of Ejby, west of the city of Odense, Denmark, on the island of Fyn. One photo was taken next to Kanalvejen ("way to, or by, the canal"); the other is taken near the town square. Today, Ejby is a town of about 10,000 inhabitants.                                      

They were taken by a man named Carl Jensen in February 1909. Carl is one of the linemen in the photos. The photos were made into postcards that he mailed to his brother Valdemar.

I bought these postcards through a postal auction in Denmark, and thought the readers of CJ might enjoy them also!
