#FlashbackFriday from the Historical Society: Happy Easter with a Penny Postcard

It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society. Today the society wishes everyone a solemn Good Friday and a happy Easter Sunday. This image is another from our turn of the twentieth century penny postcard collection. And, it is a bit unusual, featuring a pair of what looks like Christmas reindeer pulling an egg with Easter bunnies and a lamb. I wonder if this is an early “joke” greeting card or the lithographer just reused a leftover Christmas image to make an easy Easter card.

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society.
