A real photographic postcard drawing of a Spanish matador or bullfighter, ca. 1920s. We see the man standing showing his side profile, with his right hand raised up above his head, in a waving gesture as he faces the viewer. He wears the traditional wide brimmed hat, heavily embroidered short jacket, shirt, pants, stockings, low heeled shoes and a bull's cape on his shoulder. Behind him is town square scene with various buildings including a cathedral in the background and men on horse back, other people walking by. At bottom right corner is the name "B.J. Dorcas/Los Angeles, Cal." With minor crazing, photo album glue residue and paper backing, minor loss to emulsion at the bottom right edge, loss and abrasions mostly on reverse side, it is in fair condition.Lexicon
