A pink rose opens above a cluster of purple, white, and yellow pansies against a gold-brown ground. The sender, Ellis Williams, writes a short note about a recent stay in Glenns Falls (likely Glens Falls) and being too tired to hold the pen, a small everyday exchange typical of early twentieth-century postcard correspondence.
