Come On, Tige!

Postmarked Boston, Mass., Sept. 12, 1911, on the back and addressed to Miss Edith Bates, 27 Bradbury St., Allston, Mass., with a handwritten message: "Are [Our] Little Dear!"

A curious postcard featuring an oversized dog. The name Tige may relate to the dog in cartoonist Richard F. Outcault's popular Buster Brown comic strip, which first appeared in 1902.

For examples of Outcault's drawings of Tige, see Buster Brown and His Dog Tige and Buster Brown Joker (below).
