N/A Sirkis Artist Comical "We Were Surprised" Bull & Automobile‎ Scene 1906 Postcard

Comical early 1900s postcard from The Rotograph Company, depicting a man in an open-top automobile startled by a charging bull in a rural lane — a humorous nod to the early age of motoring. Caption at left reads: > We were Surprised. Message (transcribed exactly as written): > Dear Ralph, We are learning this year had returned to a cow stable – ha! – would be surprised too. Lovingly, Aunt Jessie. The Undivided Back layout and Austrian printing mark this as an early example of transatlantic postcard production, blending American humor with European print quality.
