Boy and Cow in Sunlight, Tender and Lovely Antique Real Photo Postcard DO which is still in operationAmong my favorite recent snapshot finds what a proud and poetic portrait, and beautiful boy and cow, both, and with a lot of poignance to the lilt of the rope connecting cow and boy and hitch, too. One can also I think feel the brightness of the sun lighting them from behind, with the tall, straight backed posture of the boy seeming as if determined to shade against it. 3 7 16 x 5 7 16 and in very good condition. Unused back.
