"You Auto Have A Happy Hallowe'en,"
01
Artifact Overview
Halloween's superstitious origins gave way to a national celebration of mystery and innocent fun in 20th-century America. Seasonal greeting cards commonly exchanged by friends and neighbors during Halloween reflect a distinctly American blend of olden customs and modern life. A traditional jack-o-lantern drives a contemporary automobile on this clever card from 1908.
