    c1930 ORIGINAL GERMAN POSTCARD
    NEWFOUNDLAND DOG
    SEARCHING FOR MOUNTAIN AVALANCHE VICTIM
    Estate of Alice Kugelman
    From the Connecticut Auction of the Estate of Alice Kugelman, a very well known and highly respected antiques expert comes this
    c1930 ORIGINAL GERMAN POSTCARD SHOWING A NEWFOUNDLAND DOG OUT IN FRONT OF FIVE MEN SEARCHING FOR A MOUNTAIN AVALANCHE VICTIM.
    This 3 1/2” x 5 3/8” “Post Karte” is printed in German on the front, the translation being “Search for a victim of the Mountain.” As shown, this was never postally used or written on and is in excellent antique condition with no creases, tears or other defects.
    I've recently purchased a large number of antique St. Bernard and Newfoundland items from the Estate of Alice Kugelman, a very well known and highly respected antiques expert who, among other things, had Newfoundlands and was very active in their training and use as rescue dogs. In the 1990s she turned her energies to Connecticut Canine Search and Rescue, founding the volunteer organization in 1994 to provide emergency response for lost, missing, or drowned persons. With her beloved Newfoundland dogs, she participated in rigorous trainings and rescues into her late 70s.
    Please watch my listings both for those and what I hope is an interesting and eclectic selection of other vintage and antique items.
