Jackalope

How did we ever get along before Photoshop?

“Also often called the Antelabbit, this, the most amazing of all desert animals is reputed to be a cross between a Jack Rabbit and an Antelope. Rumor has it that the Jackalope sings at night in a voice that sounds almost human.” This Continental-sized Plastichrome card was distributed by Petley Studios of Phoenix, Arizona, and probably dates back to the mid-1970s.

Update 23 September 2010: I’m sending this card off to Sandrine for her daughter, who is an admirer of rabbits; perhaps she will believe that this rabbit is typical of those in the U.S.
