Discover a fascinating piece of early 20th-century ephemera with this original postcard depicting a humorous and chaotic street scene in Freiburg, Germany. The card features a unique "Bier-Barometer" (Beer Barometer) on the left, illustrating four stages of beer consumption from "trocken" (dry) to "benebelt" (tipsy), each with a whimsical character enjoying a brew. The main image captures a lively, almost surreal nocturnal streetscape, complete with falling figures, a dog, and historic Freiburg architecture under a crescent moon, all contributing to a wonderfully strange atmosphere.This collectible postcard, postmarked 1900, offers a glimpse into the popular comic art and social commentary of the era. The detailed lithographic printing brings out the expressive characters and architectural elements. It's a charming representation of German humor and street life from over a century ago, making it a distinctive addition for collectors of German postcards, comic art, brewery ephemera, or unique historical themes.
