Written on the inside cover: "Jimmie Le [?] / George Ye Yun [?] / Edward Fu." FRONT: A reddish-orange skin man stands tall, holding a staff with his right hand while looking toward his left. He wears a hat that resembles a dragon with a wide snout and two upturned horns. Beside the hat, the only other article of clothing is a loin-cloth which also resembles a dragon. Above and off to the left of him appears to be a body of a serpent / dragon with scales and legs. BACK: In a lay-out similar to a postcard, there is an empty square on the upper-right corner for a stamp and three lines half-way down, also on the right, for the "send-to-address." The name "Kubla Khan" is displayed on the left side in capital letters in blue on a gray background. Next to this, along the top are printed th words: "From Kubla Khan / Chinese Theatre Restaurant / "Gateway to Chinatown" / Bush and Grant Avenue / San Francisco, Calif. / Dine - Dance - Floor Show."
