Description: In-Depth Description: This vintage postcard, postmarked 1904, features a charming image of a child dressed in traditional Swiss costume. The front side displays a colorized photograph of a young boy standing outdoors, holding a basket, with a picturesque, pastoral background. The vibrant colors and attention to detail in the child's clothing, particularly the rich red and gold tones, make this postcard a visually appealing piece. On the reverse side, the postcard is postmarked "8.XII.04" from Wischenfluh, Switzerland, and addressed to "Herrn Julius Joffenhofer." The green Swiss stamp, along with the clear postmarks, adds to the historical significance of the item. The publisher's details, "Kunstverlag Th. Zinker, Baden (Schweiz), No. 1754," are also noted, further establishing its authenticity. This postcard is a rare find, particularly because of its age, the detailed imagery of traditional Swiss attire, and the fact that it has been mailed over a century ago. Such postcards were typically used as souvenirs or to maintain correspondence, making them both culturally and historically significant.
