RAPHAEL TUCK & SONS
- Fringed, floral multi-panel
Here's a very interesting fringed Easter card which opens up to reveal a total of three floral panels (although it seems likely that there was originally a fourth panel covering the back). Each panel features a different bouquet of flowers surmounted with a white cross. At the bottom of each is a different verse: "Christ our Passover", "He is Risen", and "He died for us:. There is an attached string, with tassel, which permits the card to be lifted open easily.
The back carries Tuck's "LONDON REGISTERED" easel logo.

, I'd say. The three floral panels are.clean and bright. The white fringe is also quite clean, though a bit disheveled. The back, where I assume another panel was originally attached, carries some glue and paper remnants around the perimeter. (Please see scans.)
