1906 Homesteader's Humor

This charming piece of history from 1906 offers more than just a greeting. The comic postcard features an amusing illustration of a bird alongside the playful message “I’m Laying For You… and the other two are setting. That means first, second, and third prize.” The handwritten note adds a personal touch to the front of the card, which was customary at the time due to regulations that reserved the back for the recipient’s address only. Artist signed. 

This postcard stands out with its undivided back (UDB), marking it as an artifact from before 1907 when postal regulations changed to allow messages on the back of cards. Add this conversation starter to your collection today and own a tangible piece of 1906 wit and charm.
