Description: May L. Farini - Artist Signed - 1911 - Halloween - Authentic Antique PostCard No Reproductions ! / 100+ years old - Authentic Original Cards Only in My Store ! NOTE: " © 1911 M. Farini. N.Y. " - artist signature shown enhanced on dress, 3rd image REVERSE: "To Gertrude from Cousin Marguerite G." / "R.F.D. #1" - to: "Miss Gertrude Johnson, Balaton, Minn." 1912: Postal Condition: Used - Cancel, Stamp - "Colorado Springs / Oct. 23 / 1912" NOTE: Artist May L Farini cards are typically found as published by Fairman / Pink of Perfection / the Fairman Publishing Co. of Cincinnati & New York (feather logo) without color... OR... when the card is found painted, the painting is attributed to Farini or the publisher. But this example suggests that when these cards are found with hand painted color added, the water color paint and tinting MAY have been added buy the person who purchased the card? Or does little Marguerite's notation suggest wishful dreaming... or was she playing a Halloween prank or trick on her cousin? Examples of this card can be found unpainted, or with a wide variety of color schemes of hand painted tinting. Marguerite's "painted by" notation along with the reverse signed message by the same girl probably makes this an extraordinary "ANSWER" piece for advanced collectors who want to establish the truth.
