Description

Presumed London?: M. & L. Ltd. ,. Good+ with no dust jacket. 1920. Unknown. Soft Cover. Original Vintage Postcard - Highly Un-PC nowadays! The postal date on the reverse shows 1920. Number 1885 in this series. No Illustrator noted. The large image is of a Little Black Boy, with 'corkscrew spikes' hair and a small loin cloth, looking Very Surprised in a grassy setting - with Cactii ! ? ! . The text in brown above the image reads = "Who Said My Mummy was Eating Chocolate When I Was Borned? ". A 'humorous' sentiment very much of the period! . The address and message on the back is in pencil, and posted/stamped. Overall a generally clean and tidy card, but with a few light marks/ corner tip rubs/light corner creasing, but an interesting example of the completely oblivious modes of thought of the day to colour, etc. For International buyers, postage paid on postcards will be highly reduced to 'at cost' when the item is processed, but initially your purchase will show the higher 'up to 1 kilo' cost. I will email you the exact cost when ordered, or contact me first please. See images. ; Oblong 24mo 5" - 6" tall .
