The back is blank.
Size: approx. 4.5" x 2.75"
Date: Not dated
Lithographer: Beacon Lith. Co., Boston
Condition: Fair to good, I'd say. The front of this card is only lightly soiled, with bright, fresh colors. The back is a somewhat rough, with a good bit of lifting and scuffing from scrapbook removal. The edges and corners are slightly worn and there's a small tear in the left edge, at about the tip of the umbrella. The lower left corner is creased. (Please see scans.)
