Charming antique Art Deco get well greeting card featuring the whimsical poem "To A Sick-a-bed Lady" alongside an elegant flapper-era illustration of a young woman framed by stylized pink blossoms and flowing vines. The design combines delicate typography, soft pastel colors, and graceful Art Deco linework to create a distinctive recovery greeting representative of the 1920s–1930s. The humorous verse encourages the recipient to "keep up your courage" and "hurry up and get well," making this an appealing example of early twentieth-century sentimental paper ephemera.
This unused single-faced card is printed on thick linen-finish cardstock with a blank reverse and is accompanied by its original envelope with colorful decorative liner. The card measures approximately 5.5 inches by 4.25 inches. No publisher is identified on the card or envelope from the examples shown.
This card comes from my paternal grandfather's long-preserved collection and has remained together as originally acquired, preserving its integrity as a complete salesman sample group. It originated from a salesman's sample suitcase that also contained premium greeting cards from notable publishers of the era, making it an authentic piece of American greeting card history.
An excellent addition for collectors of Art Deco paper ephemera, antique greeting cards, flapper-era illustrations, vintage get well cards, unused greeting cards, salesman sample collections, decorative typography, and early American printing.
