Vintage Easter Greeting Card: Anthropomorphic Rabbit with Chicks

A white-jacketed rabbit stands in the center of this composition, drumsticks raised, conducting what appears to be a full paramilitary operation across a pastoral spring landscape. He has fully committed to the bit: beating that drum with complete authoritarian energy while leading a trio of baby chicks down the path toward what one assumes is their inevitable doom. The chicks, for their part, are carrying a four-leaf clover on a stick like a regimental flag, which suggests either they've been radicalized or the rabbit has built some kind of agrarian cult. The thatched-roof cottage in the background implies this is all happening in a quaint village where nobody finds any of this alarming. 'Joyous Easter,' reads the card — sure, if your idea of joy is a paramilitary drumline led by an anthropomorphic bunny in business casual.
