Wish You Were Here, From E.B. Kemble

Here's an undated postcard (divided back puts it 1907 or later), published by the Gibson Art Company "of Cincinnatti and New York". It is marked on the front as #603. This fellow E.B. Kemble was a passable cartoonist, but I know him only from a small number of postcards he drew, most of which feature these big-headed, doe-eyed people. I wonder if the name is a pseudonym, designed to trade on the fame of E.W. Kemble?
