Although Cawston's Ostrich Farm raised birds to sell their feathers, they also had a tourist business partially promoted through streetcar lines that ran to the farm. Ostriches pulled carts and carriages, and there were tours, clothing, and souvenirs for sale. On the back of this unsent card is the logo and publishing information for the Teich organization and their number A-29760 at the top of the dividing line.
