The African American Stereotype Postcard is NO. 69 in the Alligator Bait series. The original production date is unknown, however, based on the postmark it was produced around 1918 c. There are four, naked children on the postcards with names, in white, on their bodies. They are sitting in a grassland area by a body of water. In the bottom right-hand corner you see the series number and name — 69. Alligator Bait.
