Real photo postcard depicting Martha Jane Canary, widely known as Calamity Jane, standing full length on a wooden boardwalk in front of a storefront or hotel entrance. She wears a long skirt, blouse, and brimmed hat, with her name “Calamity Jane” printed in white within the image at lower center. The photograph is a gelatin silver print on postcard stock, produced in the early twentieth century, after her death in 1903, using an earlier photographic view or a later rephotograph of a known likeness.

The printed caption below the image provides biographical text stating her birth in Princeton, Missouri in 1852, her death in Deadwood, South Dakota in 1903, and her burial beside Wild Bill Hickok at Mount Moriah Cemetery overlooking Deadwood. The text reflects the early twentieth century popular framing of Calamity Jane as a frontier figure closely associated with Wild Bill Hickok and the mythology of the Black Hills.

The verso is a standard divided-back postcard with “POST CARD” at top and designated areas for correspondence and address, indicating production after 1907. No publisher or photographer credit is visible on the card.
