This humorous postcard was not mailed; there are no personalities connected to it.

The border on the face, the style of the reverse, and the attire of the young women suggests a date between 1915 and the early 1920’s.

On the face, we find a drawing of three young women perched on a tree limb.

Each girl is attired in a long skirt, and is wearing sturdy shoes with square heels.

It is not clear how the young women, so attired, could reach the height they have attained.

Two of the gals are wearing hats, but one has not covered her long tresses.

All are in good spirits – smiling or grinning together.

Alas, there is no indication of the postcard artist.

It may be a composite of photographic images and drawn sections.

Above the scene, a printed legend boasts:

“The boys have nothing on us at”

The dangling “at” suggests that the postcards were intended for a national market – a local printer could customize the postcard by filling in a place name.

(I have never found this postcard with the identification of a specific town or city.)

On the reverse, the card is labeled as “Local Comics” and “25 Des.” – which may mean 25 comic designs that an entrepreneurial printer could customize.

A postcard collector seems to have appreciated the independence and self-assurance of the young women as the postcard was preserved in very good condition for more than a century.
