Original colour-printed German postcard. Verso contains additional imprint of the Dresden Constantin Butziger Restaurant: Der Hirsch am Rauchhaus. Anthropomorphic map of Australia, New Guinea and Borneo on a postcard. Relief shown pictorially. "The landmass of Australia takes the form of a red-headed, bewhiskered gentleman with full beard and stiff collar and jacket, whose light blue eyes gaze with fixed stare towards the north. His prominent nose follows the outline of Cape York whilst his mouth and chin match neatly with the outlines of the Gulf of Carpentaria and Arnhem Land. Only Sydney and Melbourne are marked on the map. New Guinea takes on the shape of a beckoning left hand, with the accompanying arm shown in faint outline running from his shoulder in Western Australia through Java, Borneo, the Celebes and Spice Islands." "O china sei mein! Lass Dich nicht mit dem Russen ein! [Oh China be mine! Don't let yourself get involved with the Russians!]--Accompanying German text.
