The postcard here is signed by Ellen Clapsaddle (a famous postcard artist) and is a second birthday greeting for a member of the "Cradle Roll." Apparently Cradle Rolls usually were registries of babies born to church members, which explains the religious theme of this card. Writing on the back lists a baby's name, parents' names, and a 1927 date.
The greetings cards below are ones I received for my first birthday. The photograph is of me celebrating my first birthday.

I so love vintage graphics! They are extra special when they are actually yours. If I had to pick a favorite it would have to be your birthday card with the little girl and the cow. How sweet!

Postcardy-Do you know anything about copyright of greeting card images, or where I could find out about it?
what a darling card. I recently found a birthday card I received probably early 1950's . My uncle her father wrote her name. I wish I still had the envelope for it then I would know exactly hold old. Thanks for sharing your card. How precious. Some day I will have to post mine. Thank you for sharing.
I meant to write I received from my cousin Bonnie
Your first birthday cards! How very very special and it's all in the fact that your mom saved them. How precious.
The picture of you and your mom is beautiful, it looks like a movie shot and you both look like stars!

I did a little test for the reply back function. I think that we are out of luck! Oh well I'll just email you directly in the future. I saved you address so that it won't accidentally get sent to the spam folder. Happy PFF!
