Florida Cats Beach Shaped Postcard Redwood Kittens Die Cut Vintage Unposted

A wonderfully colorful and unusual Florida postcard featuring two adorable white kittens enjoying a day at the beach!

This eye-catching die-cut shaped postcard features a classic Florida vacation scene with two fluffy white kittens relaxing on a striped beach chair, surrounded by sand, seashells, a colorful beach umbrella and beach ball.

Unlike a standard rectangular postcard, this piece was specially produced with a large dimensional die-cut shape, giving it considerably more visual impact and making it a fun addition to a Florida, cat, novelty postcard or vintage travel collection.

The reverse is unused and includes the original publisher and production information.
