As usual, I was thinking about something else entirely, but that will have to wait until next week. Whilst going through my inventory to find illustrations for THAT notion, I came upon another subject to worry about. Postcards with dogs on them are always decent sellers: people do appreciate ‘em. A postcard publisherContinue reading “Golly Gee”

Dogs Not Doing That
It has been suggested to me that, for a column about postcards which show dogs doing other things than urinating, there were way too many references to dogs peeing. I am sensitive to the comments of my readers, so I feel I need to show you a few of the postcards in my inventoryContinue reading “Dogs Not Doing That”

This chapter in my original book on theContinue reading “Paws for a Laugh”
Dogs Do These Things
Animals played a big part in the world of postcards. In an earlier era, when the only real air conditioning available at night was an open window, a light sleeper could be acutely aware of the dogs and cats which roamed the streets at night, and the chickens your neighbior kept in the backContinue reading “Dogs Do These Things”
