Original early 20th-century real photo postcard showing a young boy seated in a studio portrait, holding an unusual toy dog or animal pull toy with harness and reins.
The child is posed in a striped outfit with white collar, seated on a studio chair. Beside him is a large early toy dog or pull toy, visible in excellent detail, showing the head, muzzle, collar or harness, and reins.
