The message handwritten in cursive using pencil is upside down. The card also bears a postmark, postage stamp, special cancellation, address and slogan--all right side up. The publishing information is along the left edge. The yellowish tint is part of the background of the sepia tone of the picture side. The dividing line looks like a long stake with a rose at the top.
Special cancellations; Postage stamps; Postmarks; Alice Young; Divided backs
