Romantic Scene, Embossed Floral Border, Early 1900s

This postcard features a romantic scene with a couple in a tender moment, framed by an embossed floral border. The caption "I WANT WHAT I WANT WHEN I WANT IT" adds a touch of humor and sentimentality. The postcard is an example of the Divided Back type, which was popular from 1907 to 1915, allowing for both a message and an address on the reverse side.

The back of the card includes a handwritten message: "Dear sister, I am sending you a letter from father. He says he is much better than he was. Don't know when he will come home. We are the same as always, only a star in the washing. I felt bad." The card is in good condition, with some light wear typical of its age, and no visible postmark or stamp.

This postcard documents early 20th-century communication and social customs, reflecting the sentimental and humorous themes popular at the time. The embossed floral design is characteristic of the era's aesthetic preferences. Surviving examples provide valuable insights into personal correspondence and design trends of the period.
