Few things on this board are as small and as ornate as this embossed die-cut numeral 8, which pairs the figure with a girl and a cluster of roses. Die-cut scraps like this were printed in large numbers from the late nineteenth century into the early twentieth, when manufacturers cut thin printed sheets into shapes and pressed them into raised relief. The number itself served as a frame for the scene, a practical way to mark a child's eighth birthday with a sentimental image rather than a written greeting. Children and their families often kept such cards in albums or scrapbooks, which is part of why so many survive today.
