A series of six (five shown here) postcards about a safari. The text came from a 1996 National Geographic ad for the Pathfinder SUV.

Text above: Safari Safety Bulletin: Refrain from using the Pathfinder's horn whilst driving through an elephant herd. The sound is like that of an elephant in distress, and may cause the herd to stampede in your direction. Even though the Pathfinder featurs chip-resistant paint, this would not be a good thing.

Text above: Botswana Travel Tips

1. Beware of bull elephants.
2. Beware of crocodiles.
3. Beware of deep sand.
4. Beware of deep mud.
5. Beware of everything else.

Text above: It took us only a few minutes to surmise that Botswanna's Minister of Transportation must spend most of his time consiling the country's Minister of Tourism, for just two miles out of Maun the tarred road abruptly ends and turns to sand.

No text above.

Text above: On our first day alone, we saw elephants, giraffe, hippos, zebra, buffalot, wildebeest, gazelle, and warthogs--the latter of which (DRIVING ALERT) burrows dens into the ground that put New York potholes to shame.
