This rare antique Victorian (1890-1910) fancy Happy Easter postcard features a tiny silk booklet applique on a green silk background glued on top of a postcard cardboard on which is written "A HAPPY EASTER" in raised gilded letters. On the silk, a coloured easter motif of an egg with daffodils is embossed.

Greeting cards of this type were sold in paper envelopes and were seldom sent through the mail without them.  They were too fragile and, more particularly, they were too expensive. Usually they were mailed with letters as this one probably was, since the text (in French) seems incomplete.

Dimensions: 
Approx. 3.5 X 5.5 inches and 3/4" thick.
État/Condition:
Good vintage condition. Some surface soiling but no tears and no wear to corners of booklet.

Smoke-free environment. Shipping fees always combined on multiple purchase.

NOTE: All our products are antique or vintage. We strive to purchase and present only items in good to near-mint condition, but most pieces will show some degree of wear that we try to describe and show in our pictures.
