Two boys in costume stand at a doorway, one holding a jack-o'-lantern, and the verse printed across the card sets the mood for the holiday. Halloween postcards like this were especially popular in the early 20th century, when illustrated cards were mailed in large numbers for holidays and special occasions. Designs often mixed playful humor with the folk traditions of trick-or-treating and harvest-season mischief, and cards like this one give a sense of how the holiday was celebrated and shared between friends and family.
