A vintage handmade Mother’s Day card
On the other hand, this Mother’s Day card is in bad shape, but don’t let the ravages of time distract you from an essential, gorgeous aspect – it’s entirely handmade. Everything from the text to the illustration was completed by hand by the great-uncle of the original poster, who worked as an advertising artist for their grandmother in the 1950s.
The quotation is from an actual song – I Want a Girl (Just Like the Girl That Married Dear Old Dad) – but you can’t see the lyrics’ start. Do we suppose such behavior was permissible in the early 20th century?
