"Die Amerikaner kommen"
(the Americans are coming) political cartoon by August Roeseler showing

The hyperinflation referred to in the art occurred in 1922-1923, when
Americans (or anyone else with real money to spend) would be treated like
royalty. But the Postkarte was resurrected into use during the depression
that was raging there (and elsewhere) in 1932, when again anyone with real
money to spend would have been most welcome. Postkarte mailed August 2 1932 from Münich to New York
City. Message partially reads 'This is how we were welcomed into Germany'. Signs in the art
include: 'We speak English', 'Welcome to Germany', 'Welcome to the
Beergarden, etc. The top & bottom edges were scissors cut. $10.00 gppa(r)n
