I think I have enough Easter postcards to start a separate Easter postcard blog. (Don't worry, I won't) Here are some postcards featuring chicks. See if you can spot the misspelling.
I didn't think I'd ever spot the misspelling. That's my favorite of the cards, too, with that hobbit-looking fellow cracking the whip. There's definitely a "Easter Chicks in bondage" theme here....those poor little birdies are all pulling wagons!
I love antique postcards because they preserve evidence of everyday life as well as celebrations and sad events. Looking at an old postcard is like holding a single piece of a puzzle; we have to imagine the rest.
I will try to put up a postcard every day. If you have a special request for a particular city or place, let me know!
The world is full of chicks.
ReplyDeleteCute cards! :)
They are lovely cards, maybe the gnome had been on the egg-nog (though having said that, I don't know, maybe gnomes are teetotal).
ReplyDeleteThey are all so cute. Can't wait for Easter! As always Thanks for sharing Christine.

ReplyDeleteMark, you're right. I'm going to start a movement to free the chicks!
ReplyDeleteI am amused by the chick in the cap! A lot of the pig postcards have them pulling wagons and sleds, too.
ReplyDeleteAt least it's not written Yeaster.
ReplyDeleteThe second one is my favorite, though I find the misspelling interesting.
