A child wearing blue robes plays on clouds above farmland. She is wearing a cape and carries a scepter. In the top left corner of the card is a list of the perfumes sold by the company: “Florida Breeze, Martha Washington, Spanish Jessamine, Golden Gate, Edgewood Violets.”
The verso is a text advertisement for products made by Ricksecker. A stamp on the right side of the card advertises for the seller, J. G. Northcraft, of Abilene, Kansas.
