What the boys did to the cow
Description
Playful panic and rural mischief radiate from this delightfully mischievous Victorian-era Halloween greeting card. A woman in bright red clothing flees across a moonlit farmyard, her white petticoats flying as a cow lunges from a wooden fence enclosure. Oversized jack-o'-lanterns float menacingly in the sky, their sinister grins adding to the spooky Halloween atmosphere. A crescent moon and tree complete this charming scene of Halloween chaos and innocent fright, rendered in vibrant chromolithography.
