A Delightful Surprise: A Little Girl's Exciting Birthday Adventure (circa 20th century) This charming postcard, featuring a mischievous little girl, captures the essence of childhood excitement and the joy of receiving a birthday present. Dressed in her best Sunday best, with a cherubic smile and rosy cheeks, she proudly carries a bulging parcel, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. The parcel, tied up with a bright ribbon, seems to be bursting at the seams, promising a delightful surprise within. The verses on the postcard add to the playful atmosphere, with the first line reading, "When on your birthday, a parcel comes your way, open it carefully, and see what's to say." The second verse continues, "If it's a toy, then you'll have lots of fun, if it's a book, your mind will be on the run." The third verse adds, "If it's a game, you'll laugh and play all day, and if it's clothes, you'll look smart in a new way." The postcard, with its humorous verses and delightful illustration, is a testament to the simple joys of childhood and the excitement of receiving a birthday present. It brings back fond memories of our own childhood birthdays and the thrill of opening a present, not knowing what wondrous treasure lay within. This postcard is a perfect reminder of the happiness and joy that a birthday brings and the excitement of the surprises that await us.
