Vintage Halloween Greeting Card Girl Jack-o'-Lantern Scarecrow

Perched on a stick amid a garden of hollyhocks, a scowling jack-o-lantern faces off against a blonde girl in a pink dress and blue boots who is leaning forward with the aggressive confidence of someone who has absolutely nothing to lose. The pumpkin's carved grimace suggests genuine offense at this child's audacity, and honestly, fair — being mocked by a pigtailed kindergartener while impaled on a stick is nobody's idea of a dignified Halloween. The card's text, 'Pooh! Who's afraid of you?', is doing a lot of heavy lifting to convince us this is a power move and not, in fact, a small child having a psychotic break in a flower garden.
