Description: SPORT - Fox Hunting - 1908: Fox hunting is an activity involving the tracking, chase, and rarely killing of a fox, traditionally a red fox, by trained foxhounds or other scent hounds, and a group of unarmed followers led by a master of foxhounds, who follow the hounds on foot or on horseback. Fox hunting originated in the 16th century in the form which was practiced legally until 2005 in Great Britain, but it also takes place all over the world, including in Australia, Canada, France, Ireland, Italy, and the United States. In Australia, the term also refers to the hunting of foxes with firearms, similar to spotlighting or deer hunting. In much of the world hunting in general is understood to relate to any game animals or weapons (e.g., deer hunting with bow and arrow); in Britain and Ireland, "hunting" without qualification implies fox hunting (or other forms of hunting with hounds—beagling, stag hunting, mink hunting, drag hunting, or hunting the clean boot) as described here. This Divided Back Era postcard, mailed in 1908, is in good condition, but there is some franking on the image and a small tear on the card's left-hand border. Taylor Art Co. Philadelphia.
