Image Highlights:The man holds a long hunting rifle, possibly a shotgun, and stands in front of a neat wood-plank outbuilding and kennel.His hunting companion, a floppy-eared dog (possibly a hound or spaniel), sits alertly beside him.The kennel itself features glass-paned windows, a slanted roof, and a large circular entry door with chain—clearly built with care and craftsmanship, indicating the dog’s importance.The background shows a tree-lined slope, suggesting a rural homestead setting, possibly Midwest or Appalachian.? Back of Card:Divided back format with “POST CARD” and “CORRESPONDENCE HERE / ADDRESS ONLY”—typical of cards printed circa 1907–1915No stamp or postmark; the card was never mailed? Condition:Excellent clarity and contrast with strong detail on clothing, dog, and buildingsLight age toning and some edge/corner wear typical of antique postcardsClean and unmarked on the back?
