Original undivided-back theatrical postcard, printed in Germany/Austria for the European markets, ca. 1900–1905. Studio portrait of a pretty female performer in trouser-role/musketeer costume—small plumed hat, velvet tunic with braid, lace cuffs, short skirt, thigh-high boots, and a rapier. Multilingual back (German “Postkarte,” “Weltpostverein,” French, Italian, Russian, etc.) confirms early Continental printing for export; publisher and photographer uncredited, as issued. (SOLD)
