An angel holding lilies beside a lamb gives this card its particular character, the lily standing in for the resurrection and the lamb for Christ, two emblems that Easter greetings of the early twentieth century leaned on heavily. Holiday postcards like this were printed in large numbers and mailed across the country, so the design was meant to be read quickly: a few symbols, a short wish, and a sentiment that could pass between friends or family in a single line. Look closely at the lettering and color work, which show how printers of the period used chromolithography and embossed edges to make a modest card feel special.
