Antique funny chickens duck spool cotton postcard
From an antique 1890s spool cotton advertisement from the Clark Thread Co. in Newark NJ.
The illustration was most likely made by Louis Prang Co. of Boston, considered the father of the American greeting card.
Retouched, restored, borders added.
Big cotton reels!
