Postcard of a wild burro, Nevada, circa 1930s

Date
1930 to 1939
Description
An artist's color rendering of a wild burro looking out to the Nevada desert. Written on back of postcard: "The burro is one of the pioneer characters of the old West. Though burro pack outfits are still to be seen on the desert, the day of the burro is passing, along with the gunman, the cowboy and Indian, and other historic features of by-gone days. Like the Indians, he may still be seen, a figure from the romantic past. With his echoing bray, his hardihood, his sleepy good nature and homely appearance, he is an extremely interesting local character." Postcard is titled "'A Native Son of Southern Nevada,"
