They're actually called a trade card, quite a bit larger than a postcard. They're certainly scarce, and of course anything pigeon shooting related is interesting.

I believe the shooter is actually Dubray and always have. Muderlak and I discussed it on a couple of occasions and I believe he even found that where he's standing was Dubray's handicap at the time.

I would be very suspicious if they looked washed out like they were copied.

Do they fall under public domain since Parker is no more, and they are over 100 years old?
