Antique Halloween Ghost Postcard

Although ghosts have long been a staple feature of stories traditionally told at Halloween time, for some reason they do not appear often in old decorations, novelties, or postcards associated with the holiday. This one is a rare example, dating from around 1910.



There are a lot of details in this card: note the barely-there face of the ghost,
and the tiny witch flying past the moon.
