A witch riding a broomstick, a black cat arched beside her, and a grinning jack-o'-lantern figure with a pumpkin head set this card apart from the many other Halloween scenes on the board. Postcards like this one were produced in large numbers in the early twentieth century, when holiday cards were a popular way to send brief greetings through the mail. Artists of the period often mixed folk figures such as witches and black cats with harvest pumpkins, helping to shape the cheerful, costumed image of Halloween that many people still recognize today.
