Today I will share an old picture postcard from my postal history collection of the Kaiser riding into battle on a white horse. This was mailed to Okahandja, German-Southwest-Africa in the year 1904. Today, Okahandja is a town of about 24,000 people in central Namibia.

Very nice card Linus. The style of writing back in those days had class too.

Thank you, Bujutsu. I agree, the handwriting is classic. This card was addressed to the "Bahn" station, which translates to train station. Wikipedia has a picture of the Okahandja railway station shown below...
