"Old Betsy" in 1965

This postcard, originally printed in 1965, shows a typical western scene with the engineer of Old Betsy impatiently waiting for the native American and the miner to step aside.
The most stunning thing on the back of the postcard, mailed in 1967, is the 4 cent stamp. The post office wouldn't take it far with 4 cents these days
