There are bats flying in the air and a black cat on a wall as well as another scary jack-o-lantern in the background. Text on the Postcard reads “Wishing You a Happy Halloween”. The Postcard carries the mark of the publisher on the reverse - Gibson Art Company of Cincinnati.
    This wonderful 1920’s Halloween Postcard is unconditionally guaranteed original and of the period. It is NOT a reprint, reproduction, reissue or modern printing but an original Postcard printed and distributed in the mid 1920’s. It carries our unconditional return privilege and lifetime guarantee of authenticity.
    This rare and wonderful, 1920’s Gibson Art Co. Chromolithograph Halloween Postcard is in very good condition. It is postally used with message and address on the reverse and a machine postmark dated October 2, 1924. The Card has survived the USPS system quite well - the colors are bright and vibrant and the card is generally clean and crisp with a light scuff at the upper right hand corner and a very light water stain at the same corner. The corners are bumped and overall the Postcard is well preserved and displays nicely.

    Important Notes about Shipping Charges:
    The amount quoted for Shipping & Handling is calculated by eBay and is equal to the EXACT amount charged by the Post Office plus a .00 "packing fee" - the .00 fee is our only compensation for the virgin packing materials we use on all of our professionally packaged boxes as well as our cost for the salaried help that does most of our packing - as I am sure you can see, we make NO profit on the Shipping charges and, in fact, our costs are usually greater than the .00 fee. Please contact us if there are any issues regarding the cost of shipping.
