The old emperor is framed by abstract black and white designs that feature portraits of his Vienna and Hapsburg castles, as well as laurel and oak leaves. It was mailed and displays a special Austrian Empire Postage Stamp featuring Franz Josef as he looked in 1848. It is printed onto the postcard, along with a salutation in German. It was cancelled in Eger, Hungary and mailed to Coburg, Germany. The note on the back is in German.
