    Description

    Lion Hunter's Lookout - African Game Hunting - T. Roosevelt Tour ©1909: This Divided Back Era (1907-15) postcard informs on its reverse: "LION HUNTER'S LOOKOUT, The king of the African forests and jungles does his hunting for food at night. This view shows a lion hunter lookout. It is a platform erected in the branches of a tree, with a roof, and a ladder reaching to the ground. The hunter takes his position there at sunset. Below a kid or calf is teetered as bait. This is one of the favorite methods of lion hunting as used by Col. Roosevelt and party." The card is in good condition, but shows some soiling and edge wear.
