A good clown is hard to find....by which we mean....not that clowns are evil, which is an unfortunate misconception, but rather that it's hard to find nice old photos of clowns in wonderful costume! Here is a lovely one, though. A classic RPPC with no photographer or publisher attribution. Divided card, so definitely post 1904, but aside from that, no idea on the date of this one. Guessing 1910s?
***Please Note*** There is a pin hole in the upper right corner of this card. It doesn't intrude on the image, but it is there. This card has seen some wear, but we feel it's quite a find all the same. Wonderful classic clown in what may be a one of a kind image (paper has a way of getting damaged, destroyed and lost over time, and RPPCs were usually printed in relatively small runs).
Please examine our high res scans for detail.
The item you are considering for purchase is, unless otherwise noted, a vintage postcard of approximately 5 and 1/2, by 3 and 1/2 inches. Postage is for fully-insured, first class shipping in a secure photo mailer (to avoid any damage to your purchase in the mails), and we happily combine shipping on all paper goods. If you purchase two cards, we will not charge for postage on the second card, and when you purchase three or more cards from us at the same time, your shipping will be entirely free, except for international orders which, because of increases in international shipping rates will still be charged one card's shipping fees on orders of three or more. We do not charge for insurance or shipping materials, and as of the date of this listing are still charging below our overall cost on shipping.
