HALLOWE'EN GREETINGS Black cats howling, witches prowling Fortunes told and futures seen Altogether spooks and weather Hope it's HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Description

A black crow perches with wings spread atop the central orange message panel of this vintage Halloween greeting card, presiding over three cheerful jack-o'-lanterns in the foreground with characteristic carved faces. Against a deep black background, the orange panel creates dynamic contrast, framed by decorative borders and scattered stars. Two crescent or round moon faces with expressions appear on the left side of the card, not skeleton faces. The printed verse captures classic Halloween imagery before wishing the recipient a Happy Halloween.

Subjects
