This vintage postcard features an artistic portrayal of the four-masted bark Moskulu by Australian artist R.A. Borstel. The ship is depicted with full sails on the open sea, showcasing its impressive size and detailed rigging. Painted during Moskulu's visit to Sydney in 1920, this image captures a significant moment in maritime history.

Printed by Dexter Press, West Nyack, New York, and published by Manhattan Post Card Pub. Co., this postcard highlights the South Street Seaport Museum in New York, where the Moskulu is berthed today. The postcard combines historical significance with artistic charm, making it a collectible piece for maritime enthusiasts and postcard collectors alike.
