Notes
The postmark is from Springfield, but the house seemed similar to those in Colony Hills, so using Google Street view I was able to identify it visually in the Longmeadow portion of that neighborhood. Frank & Julia Crumit were renowned performance stars in the first part of the 20th century, they retired to Longmeadow to this house, known as "Dunrovin".
