The size is postcard standard 5 ½" x 3 ½". This is one of many special-issue postcards printed by Russian printing shops during WW1 for correspondence to, from, and between POWs - without covers to allow quick and painless military censure.

The obverse has two military censor stamps: the oval Turkestan one, and the triangular Austrian one. The postcard is stamped with a Tashkent cancel at the lower left-hand corner on the obverse. The message on the verso is dated 3 June 1916 and starts with "Dear Wifie."

In very good to excellent condition, showing just mild staining to the edges of the verso and a couple of small fingerprint stains to the obverse, not very obvious or detractive.
