Vintage Easter is all charm

Vintage greeting cards have an indisputable charm, with this one the loveliest of examples. I have a photo of my mother as a little girl in a similar outfit and Buster Brown haircut, which leads me to guesstimate this card was created in the 1930s.  

She’s been gathering flowers in a little basket, but has set it aside to what?  I think she is admiring her new patent leather Mary Janes, which will soon enough bear a first scratch. 

We could all do with such a pastoral moment, and a pair of shiny new shoes, now and again!
