postcard - Lone Star - The largest known cow in live (of the cattle breed)- 1943

Description: A vintage grayscale postcard of Lone Star, the largest bull in the world. Lone Star I am the largest known cow in live (of the cattle breed). I was raised on the J-J Ranch of South Texas. My mother was a little Jersey cow that weighed only 530 lbs. My father was of the Brahma breed of cattle (a medium weight cattle). I am 9 years old, weigh over 2800 lbs., stand 6 ft. 1 inch tall, a freak for size but normal in every other way. I was on exhibition the entire time at the World's Fair, Chicago, in 1933, and my photos are scattered all over the world. $500.00 reward is offered for proof of a living cow as large, in every way as I. My owner is Miss Jeanne Maulsby, 129 E. Mulberry St. :: San Antonio, Texas Made by Cardy-Lundmark Co., Chicago, U.S.A. Between 1933 and 1952 when postage rates went to 2 cent. Publisher: Cardy-Lundmark Co., Chicago, U.S.A. ****************************** The postcard is previously owned/used, and some wear is expected, such as wearing along the edges, bumping/blunting/denting of corners, chipping, creases, imprints, discoloration, etc. There may be writing (front and/or back), smudges, scruffs, ink. The condition of the postcard is consistent with an old or antique paper postcard. Normal aging and storage might have resulted in some yellowing, tanning, and other wearing. Aberrations may be noted, but you need to be the final inspector. Please refer to the scans/pictures of front and back for more details on condition. And, please contact us with any questions you have, especially, if you see what you think might be an aberration. We will gladly take another closer review for you and supply additional pictures, if you desire. ****************************** The postcard will be mailed in a plastic sleeve in a paperboard mailer. Contact us prior to the sale, if you would like that upgraded.
