Two rabbits stand side by side on this Easter greetings postcard, one of them holding a large blue egg as if offering it to the viewer. Cards like this were a staple of the early twentieth century, when the mass-produced postcard became a cheap and fashionable way to send a seasonal wish through the mail. Easter imagery of this kind often drew on the folk tradition of the Easter Hare, a figure who was said to lay or bring decorated eggs for children. Postcards from this era were usually printed in color using lithographic methods, so the bright blue of the egg and the soft pastel tones were part of their appeal. Notice the handwritten note or postmark, if present, which can tell you how the card was used.
