Miss Agnes Scully's "Special Friends"

A Very Popular Lady

As looking over the collection, we noticed that many of the postcards that were sent to Agnes were from various men across the country. Many of these men write Agnes in a way that could be assumed as romantic. Although we can not confirm any concrete statements about Agnes Scully's sex life, it has been a comical assumption that Agnes was a woman ahead of her time, not configuring to the normal cultural expectation of women. This section is dedicated to postcards from the many male acquaintances Agnes had.
