Title: "A Fragrant Greeting from the Past: A 1890s German Perfume Bottle Greeting Card" This antique greeting card, hailing from the 1890s, showcases an intricately designed perfume bottle in blue hues. The card, part of The David Pearson Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the elegance and creativity of the Victorian era.

The use of a perfume bottle as a greeting card design was a unique and thoughtful way to convey a message, making it a cherished keepsake. The card's blue color palette, with its calming and soothing tones, further enhances its appeal. The overall design exudes an aura of sophistication and luxury, making it a delightful find for collectors of vintage greeting cards, antique perfume bottles, and historical ephemera. This 1890s German perfume bottle greeting card is a captivating piece of history, offering a glimpse into the past and the evolving world of greeting cards and perfume culture.
