A rabbit dressed in a waistcoat and carrying a basket of painted eggs gives this card its charm, and its "A Happy Eastertide" greeting signals the older sense of Easter as a season rather than a single day. Holiday cards like this grew popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when printers used color lithography to mass-produce sentimental designs that people mailed or tucked into letters. The anthropomorphic rabbit, a figure that spread through European folk custom and was later shaped by children's illustration, became a favorite motif because it made the spring holiday feel friendly and playful.
