Rabbit Characters, Ault, Colorado, 1910

Rabbit Characters, Ault, Colorado, 1910
Based on the messages written by Louise, a former teacher, on the front and back of this postcard, this photo shows two young students dressed in rabbit costumes for a springtime (possibly Easter) school program in Ault, Colorado, in 1910. They're posing in a backyard (perhaps a schoolyard) and seem to be holding a string between them.

Handwritten message on the front: "These are the two rabbit characters which made such a 'hit' in our closing program last spring. Mrs. Harding and I made the costumes."

Postmarked: Ault, Colorado, Oct. 13, 1910.

Addressed to: Miss Grace Burgess, Victor, Colo.

Handwritten message on the back: "Dear girlie, Since I am not teaching, I am so busy doing nothing that I don't seem to find time to write to anyone. Wanted to tell you that I have joined the Christian Church. Louise."
