I have a lot of favorite Halloween postcards, but this is near the top of the list. Published by Landsdorf in early 1900's, this is part of a series of lantern witches. Each postcard has a witch with a different color lantern, and what your fate will be if you happen to see her.
These postcards are really hard to find in good condition. They were embossed I believe, and there's usually lots of chipping. Most of the ones I've found are too damaged for me to restore properly, but this one was in great shape.
They also had glitter, and you can see remnants around the witch and the moon. I'm always on the hunt for the other lantern colors!
