‘A A Nash’, the signature of the artist who created the scene on the front of this postcard, can be seen on the right. Nash has depicted a boy dressed as a British soldier embracing a girl on a garden path. The caption below reads, ‘MANY HAPPY RETURNS!’ (the French version beneath that, ‘Les adieux.’, means ‘The farewells’). A message has been written in pencil on the reverse: ‘For little Charlie / Baz’. The printed information states: ‘Inter-Art Co., Red Lion Square, London, W.C. / “ELEVEN-O-FOUR” Series. No. 1108. / British Manufacture Throughout.’.
