Anthropomorphic rabbits dressed as children take center stage in this Easter greetings postcard, a motif that was hugely popular in the early twentieth century. Holiday postcards like this one were produced in enormous numbers, especially in the decades before the First World War, when sending cards through the mail was a common way to mark a holiday. Rabbits and eggs became standard Easter symbols in Europe and America, partly from German folk traditions brought over by immigrants, and cards like this one helped spread that imagery. Worth noticing are the small human touches, such as the clothing and playful poses, which show how the illustrators turned a spring symbol into something cozy and familiar.
