G02653 PHOTOGRAPH POSTCARD. (Postkarte) A 5 7/16" x 3 1/2" printed postcard, whose obverse depicts six mounted Hussars, and one unmounted and only partially visible, three carrying lances, against a wooded background. All wear "Busbies," with field-grey covers and oval cockades, as well as their elaborate, ornately braided "Attila" tunics, white belts and cross straps, and high, blackened leather boots with decorative trim along their uppers. One of the men has dual chevrons on his upper right sleeve. The consigner reports that the men belonged to the "Husaren-Regiment Kaiser Nikaulaus II von Russland (1.Westfälishes) Nr. 8." To the reverse is a brief, handwritten note and address, and a postage stamp, over which has been ink stamped a 1911 date. Light age soiling, and some edge wear, may be seen.
