A Bird on a Postcard that Squeaks

A Black and Red Bird Flying

Souvenir Post Card
Printed in Japan.

This vintage postcard is unused.

A 'Squeaker' postcard is a card that has two pieced that have been sealed together at the edges.  Inside there is a squeaker, just like then ones you find in small dog toys. There is also a small hole in the back of the postcard to let air in and out of the squeaker.   When you pinch the postcard, it makes a squeaking noise!

  I uploaded a little video of a few squeaker postcards here ...
