Description

"Shriner Jollification," Pomeroy, Chase and Company, Los Angeles, postmarked 8 May 1906. The card, made for the national Shriner's convention shows a stereotyped Chinese man and message. On the reverse is an address, but no message. There are also the stamp, two postmarks, and a cancellation stamp on the reverse and part of a postmark on the front. With soiling, creasing, and edge rubbing, the overall condition is good.
