Antique real photo postcard (RPPC) showing a young man seated outdoors on a wooden spindle-back chair in a wooded clearing, with tall evergreens behind him. He wears a flat newsboy-style cap, a dark suit jacket, a light collared shirt and a boldly patterned tie. A medal or fob hangs from his lapel. He sits with his legs crossed and holds a small sprig of greenery in his hand. The photo has warm sepia tones and good detail in the face and clothing.
The back is divided and has \"POST CARD\" at the top and a NOKO stamp box, which dates the card to about 1907–1920s. The clothing fits the 1910s. The card was never mailed and has no message. The only marking is a small pencil price in the upper corner of the back. The sitter is not identified.
This is a nice piece of early 20th-century portrait photography. It would suit collectors of RPPCs, vintage men\'s fashion, rural and outdoor portraits, or antique photographs for display or mixed-media projects.
Measures approximately 5 1/2\" x 3 1/2\".
