“A Happy New Year”  is the caption on this 1908 postcard printed in Germany. It shows a pink rose and green leaves above a pineapple-shaped outline (for a vase perhaps) and a burgundy background fading to a lighter color at the bottom. It’s another in the Ethel Main Collection. The sender writes,  “Dear Ethel – Wishes for a Happy and prosperous New Year from Annie.”  The card is addressed to:  “Miss Ethel Main, 2319 Folsom St., City.”  We know “City” in this case refers to San Francisco, since this appears on the postmark.
