Dressed Cats by Alfred Mainzer, Wedding Photo

Alfred Mainzer, Inc.

This postcard is unused.  I love all the details in his work. The cats getting married are lovely, but the dog chasing the birds and knocking the camera over is my favorite part. From the looks of the bridesmaid and best 'cat', I'm thinking their wedding is next.

Leap Year, 1908, The Maiden's Vow

The Maiden's Vow in 1908.

Charlie shall propose tonight
I swear it by yon twinkling star,
for ages past might's been right
And all is fair in love and war.

I love how she has a rifle, a pistol and a knife, but just in case those don't work, she has a baseball bat!

Leap Year 1908, How to Catch Them

How to Catch Them - in 1908

Build a large Mouse Trap.  Disguise the front entrance as a palatial mansion:  take an empty flour sack, fill with rubbish and print a dollar sign on it.  Hang on for bait.  Scatter a few loose coins about the entrance for effect and await results.

this card was sent to "Miss Alice" from Henry and the only thing he writes is: I hope you have good luck in the race. Best Wishes, Henry
