According to my information, this postcard was sent from Japan to Russia, and
probably in 1945.  
Needs a translation badly and nobody has seemed to care since then. I suppose
that the historical kana usage can take place here. ![Front of the

P.S.: Yes, a translation request, but definitely not the usual case, somewhat
intricate, otherwise I would be able to translate it myself. Yet feel free to
close it if you think that it just does not fit.
