Abstract:
Color postcard featuring man and woman in a patriotic pose. A shirtless man holds a US flag in his left hand and a sword in his right. He is gazing into the distance towards a silhouette of a building, probably the Prague Castle. A woman, most likely a nurse, is holding a sheaf of leaves and looking in the same direction. She is wearing a white blouse with a red cross on the sleeve and a blue skirt. Behind the woman is the US Capitol. A flock of birds is flying overhead. In the bottom corners are two flags.
