A Luscious Lobster
Unused Dexter Press card 21340-B (and #501) which is different from 30300186 in these ways: (1) this one has plain edges, not serrated; (2) this one has the same Dexter Press main number but a different sub-number; (3) this one doesn’t call itself “A Maine Lobster” but instead “The luscious lobster,” and (4) this one is abraded on the back so is only Grade: 2

Komodo Dragons (Indonesia)
In case you missed it, we give you the full caption: Komodo Dragons (the giant lizard) are tearing a goat apart, Komodo Island. Now be honest, how many contemporary cards would say that?

Code: 30300236
Price: $11.00
Orangutan (Indonesia)
It would take several pages to editorialise about the situation with orangutan generally. We must all hope it will not happen that the only specimens we may see are on postcards. Go to Taman Safari in Bogor. Sit with one. Come away from that experience unmoved. Unused card. Grade: 1
