One of Mother Nature’s most curious critters is the giraffe. An internationally known news reporter once called the giraffe a tall blond. Giraffe postcards aren’t plentiful but they are fun to collect.
Strange as it is, the postcard is often the common link in historical fact and fiction. The cards lead us to people long forgotten and events seldom mentioned in history books. This is such a story. It started with a postcard that was a newspaper readership-development gimmick.
