A pastoral view of a rocky stream running through a wooded hillside, with several brown and white cows standing in and beside the shallow water while another grazes on the grassy slope above. The trees show autumn color, and the caption names the scene simply as a Maine farm view. Such generic rural scenes were popular linen-era cards sold to tourists as representative of New England farm country.
White border; visible linen (crosshatch) texture. Card number S-407 at upper right and Curt Teich job code 3A-H793 at lower right.
No postmark, no address, no message — blank back. Undivided back with "PLACE ONE CENT STAMP HERE" box; linen-textured stock with white border (front); Curteich "C.T. Art-Colortone" imprint; light toning/soiling, faint pencil "50" at top.
