Postcard: Conversation between a tree and a dog

Labor Day Weekend Postcard Blogathon #14

This cartoon linen postcard, which has no publisher or manufacturer listed, was postmarked on March 1, 1946, in Atlanta, Georgia. I'm putting the caption online for posterity, because it doesn't seem to be anywhere else:

A DOG PASSED BY A TREE,
SAID THE TREE TO THE DOG,
WON'T YOU HAVE ONE ONE ME,
NO, THANKS, SAID THE DOG AS
MEEKLY AS A MOUSE
I JUST GOT THROUGH HAVING ONE
ON THE HOUSE!

I think it's probably best if we don't spend too much time or effort delving into a line-by-line analysis of that verse.

Then there's the note on the back of the card, which is a different kind of disturbing:

Hi Jake —
How's this one. I hope I can find a few good ones here. I sure would like to be in your cellar.
Flick.
