About this postcard

A color illustration shows a young man in a long red coat seated on a gilded stool, leaning toward a woman in a pale dress at a wooden keyboard instrument, likely a spinet or upright piano. A green upholstered chair stands between them, and a green curtain hangs at the right; the scene is framed by a dark blue Art Nouveau border. The printed caption names the song "I'll Always Be True to You," the kind of romantic sheet-music title that early twentieth-century postcards often paired with domestic scenes. The message marks a thirteenth anniversary for Will and Mable and signs off with a joking "Ha. Ha. Ha."
