On the postcard there is an embossed illustration of two pair of hands passing a sack of coins between them. Above appears the inscription: "Ketiva Ve'Chatima Tova".
On the reverse side of the postcard there is a greeting from Mr. Meshumar Tov to Kally Mayush. The postcard was given in Aden, Yemen, where there was a large Jewish community, during the twenties, under the British rule.
The greeting is written in Jewish-Sephardic script and some of the words are in Arabic.
The greeting ends with the words (translated to English): Wishing you many years of joy and wealth …".
Condition: Very Good.
