A white-tailed deer fawn stands in tall grass facing the camera, with a fallen log and dense green foliage behind it. Its tan coat and white spots create the mottled pattern the caption describes as natural camouflage in the woods. Fawns are born with these spots, which usually fade as they grow.
Color photo postcard with slight edge wear at top; printed caption reads "SPOTTED FAWN" with the descriptive line "The tan coat and white spots given by nature to baby deer create a mottled effect that makes them almost invisible in the woods," followed by "Vacationland Scene." No postmark, stamp, or handwriting. Divided-back chrome-era card; printed "POST CARD" heading with "PLACE / STAMP / HERE" box and Kodachrome imprint on reverse. Publisher: "A Genuine Kodachrome Reproduction. The L. L. Cook Co., Milwaukee, Wis."; Copyright 1951 The L. L. Cook Co.; series 51239. Minor surface soiling, no damage.
