Vintage Postcard Alfred Mainzer Anthropomorphic Cat Mailman Postman Swiss Alps

A heartwarming domestic illustration depicting a cat family receiving mail at their alpine porch home. A dapper postman pulls a letter from his leather satchel. A mother cat carrying a kitten welcomes him, while two excited young kittens pull at her dress. In the interior room, two student cats work on homework at a wooden desk under a hanging birdcage. The background porch view shows a serene Swiss lake with snow-capped mountain peaks in the distance.
