Cavalry postcard? Hoping someone can tell me about this picture. I bought it at an antique store in Jonesborough TN, but the owner said some of the postcards I bought are from somewhere up north.
Can't see any detailed markings, but the riders are Calvary. Looks like the 5 on left are American and the 4 on the right are other type. (look at the hats) Could be Spanish American War or something to do with Panama or Puerto Rico.
