Bulls [1905 or before]
Even a collector of old postcards can sometimes end up with a bunch of bulls. Yes, it happened at John's Island, take a look ...
Trying to put a date on this card ... The description refers to Indian Head, Assiniboia. Today, Indian Head is located in the Province of Saskatchewan, Canada. According to Wikipedia: "Most of [Assiniboia] was absorbed into the Province of Saskatchewan in 1905, except for the westernmost quarter, which became part of Alberta."

I wonder what part of the bulls were "experimental," John. I never heard of a Canadian post card, but then again, I never heard of experimental bulls. :-)
