Antique sepia tone real photo postcard (RPPC) features two young men in formal attire, including a textured cardigan, necktie, and bow tie. The reverse side is hand-inscribed with the name 'Earl Swartout' and includes a Cyko stamp box, which dates the photographic paper to approximately 1904-1920. I have postcards from this family and sometimes the last name is spelled Swartwout.
Bottom right corner is missing.
