Seven pages, each with an illustration of a pretty housewife who is inept around the house but loves to be her man's slave! Measuring 14.5 by 13.5 cm. She burns the toast, makes bad coffee, can't get the gas back on, can't fix the plumbing or balance the budget, yet she is a pleasure to the eye in applying herself to these tasks. With a red background, on paper folded over, with a piece of foil pasted on to depict the toaster. Very much a card of its times. With a short inked inscription on the final page. Otherwise, fine condition. View More...
