A real photo postcard of two Chinese boys, postmarked 9 November 1910. The image shows the two holding hands in a studio, with one wearing traditional Chinese clothing and the other Western. The latter holds what appears to be a British flag in his left hand. On the reverse is a message indicating "These children are a common sight to us and are quite cute," but, given the postmark is from Los Angeles, it is not clear if the children were from that city. The printed matter is in Chinese with French wording, as well, but no publishing information. With soiling and edge rubbing, the overall condition is good.
