Jolly Hallow E'en Vintage Halloween Greeting Card with Witch
Text on Card
JOLLY HALLOW E'EN / May the Fates be good to you.
Description
Distinctive for its fearless embrace of fire safety violations, this early-1900s Halloween greeting card features a whimsical figure appearing to be a child in a red witch hat seated beside a cauldron suspended over a roaring fire. The figure wears pink clothing and sits near a black cat, gazing toward a luminous full moon rising over a serene waterscape. The chromolithograph technique captures rich jewel tones and intricate detail typical of early-twentieth-century holiday ephemera. Two glowing jack-o'-lantern faces appear in the upper corners. The card reads 'JOLLY HALLOW E'EN' at the top and 'May the Fates be good to you.' along the bottom.
