Handwritten message on the other side: "Philadelphia, 8/30/11. Dear Gary, On the other side take notice who's who. Dad." (I'm not sure "who's who" or what the message means.)

This is a 1908 postcard sent to Port Blakeley, Washington, and postmarked in Philadelphia, Pa., on August 30, 1911.

For other quirky Pennsylvania postcards with similar illustrations, see Out for a Stroll in the Park, How Is This for High?, and This Beats Walking.

No, probably not the Watusi. She has one eye closed, a hand on her hip, the other on her head, her left foot's out, and she may be shaking it all about. I think it could be the Hokey Pokey—that might be what it's all about!

In any case, this was my strike a pose runner-up for the Vintage Photos Theme Park over on Ipernity: Doing the Watusi?
