Illustrated comic postcard depicting two chorus girls standing side by side in theatrical costume with feathered headpieces and short performance dresses. Both figures stand in identical poses with one leg lifted, suggesting a stage dance routine typical of early twentieth century chorus line performances.
The illustration is stylized with exaggerated facial expressions and theatrical scenery behind them. Such postcards were popular humorous or theatrical themed souvenirs referencing stage entertainment and vaudeville era chorus performances.
The front bears the printed text: Printed caption reading “WE’RE IN THE CHORUS.”. Handwritten inscriptions read: Blue ink note reading “Peace York Oct 1947.”.
