Real Photo Postcard (RPPC) postmarked December 5, 1946, depicting giant chickens loaded on a horse-drawn wagon. Caption printed on the image reads verbatim: "Raised by Gus Rucks. Home of Bob Burns, Van Buren, Arkansas." A classic exaggeration / novelty RPPC subjects that cross over with Arkansas topographical collectors, Bob Burns comedian memorabilia collectors, and poultry/farming Americana enthusiasts — three separate buyer pools on one card.
Bob Burns (1890–1956) was a nationally known radio comedian and actor from Van Buren, Arkansas, making this card a named-celebrity crossover piece beyond a standard town view.
