About this postcard

A brown hen stands beside a cluster of colored eggs and daisies, with four yellow chicks in the foreground and a farmhouse and trees behind. The printed greeting reads "Loving Easter Greetings." Easter was one of the busiest greeting-card seasons of the early 1900s, and Raphael Tuck & Sons issued many barnyard and spring-flower designs for the holiday. Elizabeth Tribit sent a short Easter wish to Alice Dunn in Maconville, NJ.
