Edna was valedictorian of her high school class in 1908. On the card below, she wrote, “class flower of 1908.”

Floral cards were extremely popular in this era. The Tuck company, “Art Publishers to Their Majesties The King & Queen,” was the largest British publisher of picture postcards. On the back of the card to the right is the imprint, Raphael Tuck & Sons ”Art“ Series 6881. Tuck’s cards were printed and numbered in a series to appeal to the many persons collecting cards during the first 15 years of the 20th Century. In the corner it says, “Chromographed in Saxony.” Most cards sold before World War I were printed in Germany or Austria.
