From our Alice Ellison Collection…..

“A Peaceful Easter”  is the wish that adorns this 1911 embossed postcard done in muted gold and gray tones, showing a pretty girl in an egg-shaped “window” with three chicks. (So cute the way the one chick is standing on the girl’s shoulder!) The egg is flanked by lilies of the valley. The note from the sender states:

“Kindest greeting to All. Mrs. Jennie[?] Burger.” And the card is addressed to:   “Mrs. Alice Ellison, 26 & Cheyenne Ave. Pueblo, Colo.”
