Greetings for Halloween—Invitation for Revelry on Mystic Halloween, 1923

Greetings for Halloween—Invitation for Revelry on Mystic Halloween, 1923
A 1923 invitation for a Halloween get-together at the Edwin Forrest House, which was the location of the Philadelphia School of Design for Women (now the Moore College of Art and Design).

I haven't been able to determine whether "Amy Lee" and "Mrs. Kuhir" were associated with the school in any way.

Greetings for Halloween

We invite you to meet with us at Edwin Forrest House at the hour of any o'clock to hold revel on the mystic Hallowe'en.

Handwritten note on the back of this postcard: "To Mrs. Kuhir, All good wishes from Amy Lee. 1923."

Printed on the back: "Series No. 297, Hallowe'en, 6 designs."

There is nothing more pleasing than a well designed woman.
