This very early 1900s postcard was published when he had completed this feat. It shows areas with some ageing so browning very evident, small top left region to allow,  otherwise this is unused in very good condition indeed and one of the only cards ever published of this historic Austrian when he made history (unused).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the early 1900s, Hanslian began a journey around the world, pushing his wife and daughter in a perambulator. The journey began with a wager between Hanslian and the New York Herald in which he would walk a set amount of miles (some reports say 7,000, others state 15,000) and the Herald would reward him with $2,000. The Hanslians started in Vienna, traveled through Europe to England and made their way to North America. They walked an amazing 19,000 miles and this postcard is a souvenir published while they were travelling around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Postcard Finder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56190874222918,"sku":"162535","price":34.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/3216\/9030\/files\/anton-haslian-champion-austria-record-breaking-walker-old-postcard-162535-p.jpg?v=1773669840","url":"https:\/\/postcardfinder.co.uk\/products\/anton-haslian-champion-austria-record-breaking-walker-old-postcard","provider":"Postcard Finder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
