The verso features a graphic logo in the lower left-hand corner, inscribed "For the benefit of the St. Evgeniya Society". Evidently, the postcard was issued for charitable fundraising purposes.
In very good to excellent condition. The paper is mildly soiled but only three stains are actually visible above the warship, and can be easily confused as smoke from the ship's smokestacks. Two creases, visible mostly on the verso, are long-since flattened out and are almost unnoticeable on the obverse.
