"Why shouldn't a woman run a reptile house? Women are at work in my country, and the rest of the world, in all types of work and professions." |
Joan Beauchamp Procter (1897-1931) was a zoologist. This postcard designed by Rachel Ignotofsky highlights her top achievements: "Discovered a new species, the peninsula dragon lizard" ; "Considered an expert in herpetology"; "Designed the most advanced reptile house of its time".
It was sent by Phillip (the USA). It arrived on a big mail day, i.e. along with no less than eight pieces of mail. Among them, another postcard featuring a reptile. I love these little coincidences in the mail box.

I love Suzan Visser's art!
ReplyDeleteI think it's the first time I see it, but I love it too.
DeleteI love when you have mail box coincidences, and nice to see one of mine arrive the same time as one of Heleen's.
ReplyDeleteDouble nice ;)
