EASTER JOYS I'm so awfully busy, I've got so much to do, I wish I was this Easter card that's coming straight to you.

Description

"Easter Joys" reads the sentiment on this charming Easter greeting card, which features a child in pink sitting with a basket of colorful Easter eggs and a chicken/hen in a pastoral landscape. The upper vignette depicts the youngster with the basket and bird amid a simple outdoor setting, while the lower portion showcases purple crocus flowers. A sentimental verse accompanies the card's title, all framed by a decorative purple border that creates an intimate composition typical of early 20th-century holiday cards with their soft color palette.
