Spain: Bullfighting Torero Chamaco Tuser Art - First Day Cancellation Maximum Card (Vintage PC 1960)

this is an official spanish maximum card (tarjeta maxima) created on an antique real photo postcard (rppc). it features a striking bullfighting scene showing a matador facing the bull in a side profile stance.
the front showcases an artistic monochrome photographic depiction. the card is franked with the matching 1 peseta "correos españa" stamp from the corrida de toros series, which replicates the exact same motif.
it is officially cancelled with a special first day of issue cancellation stamp (primer dia de emision) from madrid, dated february 29, 1960 (29.feb.60), a rare leap year date.
the back of the postcard is unused, unwritten, and completely blank. it shows some light ink transfer and mirroring from the cancellation process on the front, which is common and normal for maximum cards of this era.
