      Love old post card, I have never come across a wood version yet.
      Some info on the company;
      J.W.N. Co. (1905-1912)
      Providence, RI


      "Publisher of postcards made with their patented process of sandwiching a real photo, usually a portrait, between two thin sheets of wood. Picture outlines were burnt into the wood and then hand colored. Some of their cards carry a swastika trademark."

      They also made them without the cutout.
