The balsa-like wood is decorated on both sides. On one side is Outhwaite's "Playing with the Bubbles" postcard. The image is of a mermaid fairy holding a large bubble over her head~ a is the same as the postcard with the addition of glitter highlights on the wings tail shells and water. The postcard on the other side of the wood is a split back postcard headed by "Post Card; Made in U.S.A. / For Correspondence / For Address Only";. At the bottom left - "SERIES 980 B"; in the center "Moonlight & Roses" / bottom right an image of a fairy with arms folded over a decorative banner. The wood is gold flecked with holes in the top with attached decorative hanging ribbon. The ribbons are cream with a tan border with a pink green and cream bow at the top. Corners a trifle rounded but in remarkable condition overall. Although this information is not visible the Outhwaite card image is from "Bunny and Brownie" in the Elves and Fairies Series No. 73.<br /> <br /> A remarkable survival. unknown
