• Is there an info as to what this actually is, i.e., its original source? It looks almost like a postcard, but that seems weird. Any ideas? --jjron (talk) 08:53, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

• It is a lithograph print, therefore I am assuming it was first published in a newspaper. smooth0⁷0₇ (talk) 13:39, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
