This charming vintage postcard features a humorous cartoon scene of a boy and a horse, with the caption "Rather hard of hearing." The illustration, signed by E.S. Shepard, showcases a playful rural setting with the boy appearing to speak directly into the horse's ear. The postcard was designed by C.W. Faulkner & Co., Ltd., London, and printed in Germany, indicating an early 20th-century production likely from the Edwardian era. The card is a standard size of 5.5 x 3.5 inches and features a divided back for message and address, typical of postcards issued after 1907.
The bright, detailed color lithograph printing technique enhances the whimsical nature of the scene, making it a delightful collectible for fans of vintage postcards, animal themes, and classic British illustrators. The postcard's playful subject and historical publishing details add to its appeal for collectors of early 1900s ephemera and animal-themed memorabilia.
