Description
A comic illustration shows a determined little boy holding oversized scissors and a toy sword, with a bomb tucked at his side. To the right, a crying baby lies in a woven basket, adding to the humorous contrast. The caption at the bottom suggests trouble for a gooseberry bush. The card appears to be from the early 1900s.
Front Text (verbatim):
"Sumfin's going to happen to that gooseberry bush."

Dear Hanks.
I hope you don't
feel too lonely, without the
patters of my little feet.
Whose leg are you pulling
now? I am having a nice
time, in spite of the rain.
Don't over eat yourself, or
you'll get so fat that you
will not home.
With love & kisses
from
Nellie.
