The odds of finding out who produced a hand-drawn portrait a century ago = zero, unless our genealogist can track the addressee and find a likely family member with those initials.
There is a chance, albeit slight. I have a few postcard reference books and some of them list artists and their theme type of artwork. This is why I asked if all three initials could be deciphered.
I have tried all of my reference books: Stanley Gibbons Postcard Catalogue, The Encyclopedia of Antique Postcards by Susan Brown Nicholson, Postcard Companion by Jack H. Smith, IPM Catalogue for 1979 and Picture Postcard Values - 2003.
I searched by artists whose surnames started with an "S" and even topics such as "Sea", "Sea Life" and "Fishing" but couldn't find anyone who does that topic with the initial "S".
