This vintage real photo postcard features two women posing with a stuffed donkey. The donkey is wearing a banner that says “Denver”. The photograph was taken by the Colotex studio which was located in Denver. My guess is that “Colotex” stands for “Colorado/Texas”. Perhaps the photographer had lived and/or worked in both states. I would also posit that the subjects in this photo are mother and daughter. The “AZO” stamp box indicates that this postcard was produced between 1904 and 1918. The postcard is in very good condition (see scans).

Poor mule! It appears to have been hauled from points east of Texas to Colorado, or possibly mauled by lots and lots of children’s little hands.
I wonder how many people in today’s time would want to climb aboard a stuffed horse. I don’t think there would be too many takers.
