chs-013776Description
This is an intricate and charming vintage New Year's greeting postcard featuring a serene, snowy landscape artistically portrayed within an oval frame on a textured, gray floral background. The scene captures a traditional windmill surrounded by bare trees and snow-covered ground under a twilight sky, with a small figure visible near the building. Below the framed winter illustration, there is a neatly placed bouquet of pink roses beside the embossed, shimmering words "A Happy New Year to You."
The image displays a vintage postcard featuring a one-cent Benjamin Franklin U.S. postage stamp postmarked from Chester, New York at 10 AM. Predominantly, the card is laden with handwritten message from Grandmother Demerest, addressed to Mr. Mr. George C. Hawkins with a New Jersey destination.Subject Person/Organization
