Additional Details:
The front features a vibrant, painterly illustration of a bouquet of large, multi-petaled flowers, likely chrysanthemums, in shades of pink, white, and green. The background is a soft blue-green. To the right, a decorative initial 'T' begins a poetic birthday message printed in a gothic-style font. The verse reads: 'Tis your Birthday - so I send you this, To bear my love and heartfelt wish, That many birthdays may you see Radiant with great prosperity!' The back is a divided back with 'Post Card' at the top. It has a handwritten message to 'My dear Lillie' from '7. E. P.' and is addressed to 'Miss Mary Glee, Minneapolis, MN.' The postmark indicates 'Stillwater, MN' and a date around July 30, 1910. A two-cent US postage stamp is affixed.
