Hold to Light Postcard with Pencil Drawing on Top and Message for Rosey antique trick playing cards and the peasant-style clothing carefully

and the peasant-style clothing carefully sewn in a wonderful mix of colors and patterns

but even better when housed in this great looking old slide top box with "Stencil Outfit" stenciled on the lid

made by someone a hundred years ago or so with a great aesthetic sensibility I think

Hold to Light Postcard with Pencil Drawing on Top and Message for Rosey antique trick playing cards and the peasant-style clothing carefullyI love the fact that our sender a J. T, I believe chose this postcard to send to Miss Rosy Marek, who I have to think was a redhead. I also love that he spelled her name two different ways, and signed off with a proper "good bye" and then an H. K which at least in my mind stands for hugs and kisses, but who knows? But most of all I love the drawing he made of himself on the front, suggesting that this is the way Rosey ought to take him to a dance,
