Greetings for Halloween

Description

Framed by a red border against a soft earth-toned background, this charming early 1900s Halloween greeting card depicts a young child in dark formal clothing with a red neckerchief standing beside and grasping a scarecrow figure—a white sheet draped over a crossed stick frame topped with a large carved jack-o'-lantern head. The scene captures the whimsical spirit of early Halloween celebrations, while the card's gentle color palette and nostalgic imagery exemplify the charming aesthetic of Edwardian-era greeting cards.
