Tall-tale Postcard: We Both Speared One
Photomontage of two men in a rowboat, one of whom is attempting to spear a giant fish with a forked spear, while the other is drinking out of a jug labeled, "Bait." Caption at the top reads, "Scene on the Flambeau." A text box in the lower right corner says, "We Both 'Speared' One. Series C.54." As with most of Erickson's work, this postcard is credited to his studio, "Photo Art Shop." |
