A rabbit carrying a basket of eggs is the kind of image that became a staple of American Easter cards and periodicals in the late 1800s and early 1900s, when printers were turning out cheap color lithographs for the holiday. Easter greeting cards grew popular as mass printing made illustrated cards affordable, and the rabbit, long associated with spring and fertility, gradually became the figure who delivered eggs to children. Pictures like this one show how the custom took shape: a bright, sentimental scene meant to be tucked into a letter or pinned up at home.
