Automate à musique (WWI)

This German Feldpost (field/military) postcard is dated Aug. 19, 1916.  Infantrymen are being entertained by a man in civilian clothes holding a music box with the words “Automate à musique” on the front.  Perched calmly on top of the music box is a black and white cat.  A second man in civilian clothes stands a few feet away, smoking a pipe.
