2033 Un Guide et son Chien

Les Pyrenees.  I was fortunate to locate two of these cards - one for my personal collection and another for a dear friend, Kerry.  The postage stamps (5c) were both cancelled making it easier to date these cards to the years 1905 and 1907.  If you look closely in the background you will find a woman holding a large Pyrenees puppy.  This may explain why there is so little coat on the adult.  A printer's mark of a cloverleaf with the letters M, T, I, L appears in the lower right corner.
