Brief Description |
This portrait-format postcard is printed on card with a glossy finish and features a hand-coloured photograph of a soldier sitting on a trunk beneath a canvas tent, writing a letter on his knee, with the superimposed image of a young woman standing with her hands on her hips in the top right corner.
The third verse of the song "It's a Long, Long Way to Tipperary" is printed on the bottom: "IT'S A LONG, LONG WAY TO TIPPERARY (3). / Paddy wrote a letter to his Irish Molly O', / Saying, "Should you not receive it, write and let me / know! / If I make mistakes in spelling, Molly, dear," said he, / Remember it's the pen that's bad, don't lay the blame on me."
The postcard has not been filled out or posted and is one of a set of four.
