On another, later postcard, this same image was identified as from Cawston's Ostrich Farm, and the information with a black-and-white photograph of the same rig calls it a delivery cart for the Cawston Farm. In this tinted picture two ostriches pull a cart and driver. Behind them stands another man. In the left lower corner is the publisher's number, 4470. On the back is the logo of the Koeber company. The white margin at the bottom is for messages, since the left panel on the divided back is for a return address only. Three postcards with this same image are in this collection, all made in Germany. The other two are PC-001-929 and PC-001-930.
