Vintage 1910s Halloween Postcard Child with Pumpkin Jack-o'-Lantern Antique

This charming vintage Halloween postcard from the early 1900s features an adorable scene of a child holding a large carved pumpkin with a startled expression, while another child appears to be running away in playful fright. The lithographed illustration is bordered with orange and includes the festive greeting "Happy Halloween" alongside a whimsical black cat perched on the letter "H." Below, a sweet rhyme reads: "The good wishes that I send / Are not from a spook / But just a friend."

Measuring a standard 5.5 x 3.5 inches, this divided back postcard dates from the 1907-1915 era, a popular period for Halloween holiday cards. The card is printed on paper and showcases early 20th century lithographic printing techniques with bright colors and detailed line work characteristic of the period. Collectors will appreciate the nostalgic holiday theme, the playful vintage style, and the authentic original divided back design which allowed space for correspondence and address.
