A stylized bouquet of cotton: dark green lobed leaves, creamy white blossoms with yellow-orange centers, and fluffy white cotton bolls bursting from reddish-brown dried bracts, set against a pale peach and lavender ground. The card presents the cotton plant (Gossypium) as a decorative floral subject rather than a field scene, a common motif on cards from the American South where cotton was the staple crop.
Linen-textured stock with visible crosshatch grain; white border; caption printed top left and card number 'S-536' top right.
No postmark. Linen-era Curteich "C.T. Art-Colortone" back (6A-H1923) with white border; pencil "25¢" price noted at top; light edge wear and slight toning.
