Vintage Easter Bunny Postcards Video



My favorite Easter postcards are the ones depicting anthropomorphic rabbits. These aren't the kind of bunnies you find at pet stores. These rabbits are the ones that decorate and deliver Easter eggs. They live in a fantasy world where they often dress like humans and engage in human activities.

I hope you enjoy this Vintage Easter Bunny Postcards video I made with postcards from my collection.

    Amazing collection. The bunnies on the bikes is the best...maybe. Bunnies playing tennis is also great. I have about 800 Easter cards, and I only saw two in your collection that I also have. What a great variety of designs.

    that rabbit is a little freaky looking if you ask me! I guess I prefer pet store bunnies. :)

    I suspect some Lewis Carroll influence in the approach to these illustrations. Who did his drawings again? John Tenniel?

    Great slideshow. Curious how these postcards nearly always wished people a "joyous" easter, but only occasionally "happy" and never, as far as I can tell "merry".

    There is definitely something weird about the artist rabbit. I wouldn't dare call it a bunny.

    The artist rabbit looks like he has spectacles on - that may add to his 'strange' look. Interesting postcard to be sure!

    What a fantastic Easter bunnies collection! I especially love the bunnies playing tennis (as I am a huge tennis fan). I do not have any bunny cards in my collection yet.
