An embossed Easter greeting shows two child angels with wings seated on clouds inside a frame of blue forget-me-nots; one holds a sheet of music, the other a small harp. Golden bells tied with pink ribbons hang in the upper corners and a white lily rises at the right, with the greeting "A PEACEFUL EASTER" lettered in red and green at the bottom. Such embossed floral Easter cards were a staple of the German chromolithography trade exported in large numbers to the United States in the early 1900s.
Heavy embossing on flowers, bells and lettering; lavender border; light edge and corner wear, small crease at lower center. Cursive script lettered on the harp strings/sheet music within the printed design ("andante").
No postmark or stamp — card appears to have been handed over unmailed, but it does carry a handwritten message ("Helen / Mary") and is addressed to "Sister". Divided-back 'POST CARD' with 'This space is for correspondence' / 'This space is for the address only' panels and a stamp box reading 'PLACE POSTAGE STAMP HERE / DOMESTIC AND CANADA ONE CENT / FOREIGN TWO CENTS'. Embossed Easter card printed in Saxony (J.B. & Co.), series 'A PEACEFUL EASTER' no. 0613, c. 1907–1915. Moderate wear: scuffed/abraded red surface, rounded corners, small creases.
