EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming Victorian-era comic greetings card featuring a fashionable woman adorned with an oversized red nose. Dating back to the 1880s, this quirky card is a delightful example of Victorian humor. The slim, grey-dressed woman with an elegant waist and full frills graces the front of the card, her expression playfully mischievous. Her large, red nose, a common motif in Victorian comedy, adds an element of amusement and lightheartedness to the design. The card's verse reads, "With a twinkle in her eye and a nose that's oh so bright, She brings laughter and joy to every sight." This whimsical card would make a unique and intriguing addition to any vintage greetings card collection or Victorian-themed decor. The intricate details of the woman's frilly costume and the delicate grey dress fabric are beautifully preserved, transporting us back to a time when humor and fashion were expressed in a more whimsical and playful way. This is a must-have for those with an appreciation for the quirks and charms of Victorian-era culture.
