In this whimsical vintage postcard captioned "Compliments of the Season," a group of lively rabbits is depicted joyfully interacting with a mystical figure, Jack Frost, who is shown manipulating colorful eggs in the air. The scene is set in a lush, green landscape under a clear blue sky, with the figure and rabbits gathered near a tree where a sign with "Jack Frost" is hung. Each rabbit is animatedly engaged, some standing on their hind legs, others sitting, all in animated poses. The address side of this postcard features a classic design that includes a designated top left section for correspondence and a top right section for addressing. It bears a one-cent green Benjamin Franklin stamp, canceled with a circular postmark dated April 15, 1911, in Chester, N.Y. (New York). The card has handwritten text addressed to "George Hawkins" from "Mary." The phrase “POST CARD” is boldly printed at the top, emphasizing its purpose and era of use.Subject Person/Organization
