This bobcat postcard, published in 1939 by the National Wildlife Publishing Corporation of New York, is “Subject 1″ in their “Wildlife Post Card Series”. Unfortunately, I’ve never seen Subjects 2 and up. Note the one-cent stampbox, and the blanks for name, address and city — no state required, apparently, and certainly no ZIP code back then.

The bobcat is pleased to be a part of Evelyn’s 5th “Festival of Postcards”, this one featuring quadrupeds, at her A Canadian Family postcard and genealogy blog — mostly on the off-chance that it’ll run into something tasty.
