Pink bells are the detail that sets this card apart from the many Easter greetings on the board, which tend to favor chicks, eggs, and rabbits. Easter postcards like this one became popular in the early 1900s, when the picture postcard was at the height of its appeal and families and friends mailed short holiday wishes across town and across the country. Printers of the period often used bright chromolithographic color and embossed borders to make a small card feel festive, and the bells here, a common symbol of the church calendar's resurrection season, carry that cheerful tone. Look closely at the lettering and frame, which show how much care went into even the cheapest greeting cards of the era.
