Wish You Were Here, from Rose O’Neill

 

Here’s one of the many Kewpie cards penned by Rose O’Neill for the Gibson Art Company of Cincinnati. This one, a Valentine’s card, bears the code number 67017. I don’t know when these were issued, but this one was postally used in 1918. Maybe that code number is the giveaway — 1917?
