Vintage Easter Cards

, 3 Comments on Vintage Easter Cards

Since opening my Etsy shop (December 2022 Update: I have since closed my Etsy shop) I found it as an excuse to buy even more vintage greeting cards, including cards I hadn’t previously bought for, such as Easter cards. In the past I’ve shared various selections from my ephemera collection, most notably my annual vintage Christmas card post, and with a new swath of cards, and Easter right around the corner, I decided to share my small collection of vintage Easter cards!

A purple scarf keeps her hat atop her head, and a matching purple parasol is held in one hand but rests on the ground. The man is bowing in front of her, wearing a grey jacket and black pants, he holds his straw boater style hat in one hand, and a bouquet of flowers in the other. Script across the top reads "An Easter Greeting for My Wife"

Vintage Easter card featuring a blonde girl in old fashioned attire, with a blue and pink parasol, blue and white hat, pink jacket, and full, layered white and pink skirt with blue bows, she carries blue flowers. Atop her parasol reads "For Easter"

When it comes to the holiday of Easter itself, I don’t really celebrate it, outside of stuffing my face full of Peeps and Cadbury eggs, as I am not religious. But I do enjoy the colorful spring palette and cute bunny rabbits and chicks. Do you have any Easter traditions that you’re looking forward to this year?

  1. I love your Easter card collection it is so cute! I recently started collecting Valentine’s Day cards myself because I found them so cute and cheeky and eventually, I will expand it to other holidays. I really got into them because they take up so little space to store yet really have a great visual impact once on display. Since my mom passed, I really don’t have any holiday traditions anymore aside from stuffing my face with chocolate bunnies. I don’t know why, but chocolate seems to taste better in the shape of a bunny. . .

    • Vintage valentines are so cute!! And I agree, they take up very little room, but are so wonderful and add a lot to a space when on display! I’m so sorry for your loss, and I’m with you on chocolate does taste better as a bunny!

  2. These are the epitome of mid-century sweetness and charm. You have really built up a terrific collection of vintage Easter cards.

    Like yourself, I (we) don’t really celebrate Easter either as a general. I appreciate the day all the same though and have a handful of pleasant childhood memories pertaining to it that I often reflect on during that annual long weekend.
