Vintage Halloween Greeting Card Jack-o-Lantern Pumpkins Gold

Four monochromatic yellow-green jack-o'-lanterns loom disproportionately out of an olive-brown embossed background, each sporting the same vaguely cross-eyed triangle eyes and lipless pink gash of a mouth — like the world's least threatening haunted vegetable patch. The word 'HALLOWEEN' is rendered in matching yellow-green letters with little decorative vines curling around them, because apparently the best way to evoke the 'season of the dead' is through charming botanical flourishes. The largest pumpkin, stationed on the right, has achieved a grin so wide and flat it reads less as festive and more as deeply resigned — this is a gourd who has seen things. The smallest one, tucked at the bottom center between the letters, is either an adorable baby pumpkin or evidence that jack-o'-lanterns reproduce, and honestly neither option is comforting.
