This is a Vintage Antique Jinricksha Hand Colored Postcard. This postcard looks like a mother and daughter and her child, also the Rickshaw puller. One has a pretty parasol. It is labeled Jinricksha on the front bottom along with handcolored. Rickshaws were small, light-weight carts with springs and large wheels. The rickshaw puller worked two shafts protruding from the front of the rickshaw and ran between them. The rickshaw was first imported from Shanghai to Singapore in 1880 and by 1888, a Jinricksha Department was set up to register and license each rickshaw. By the end of the 19th century, there were about 1,000 rickshaw owners in Singapore. The demand for rickshaws was so great that Japan began manufacturing cheaper versions. This postcard is in good vintage condition. Sold as found.We are not postcard experts. Asian
