Remarks:

The top two cards are souvenir cards from the Edwards Animal Show. They show an Indian python swallowing a rabbit in a numbered sequence. We have numbers 1, 3, and 4--anybody out there have #2?

The bottom card pictures a boa constrictor that is identified as "The Famous Penn Cash Grocery Boa Constrictor, Bradenton, Florida." On the back it says that this boas was 14 inches long when found in May 1919 in a bunch of bananas. The card says that he's now 10 feet long and visitors should come to see him when in Bradenton. This is an unusual advertisment for a grocery store.
