Vintage September Calendar Postcard - Birds, Roses & Poetic Farewell to Summer #3287075 (License: Personal Use)

This antique postcard from the early 1900s features a hand-drawn September calendar in the upper left, overlaid on a soft watercolor scene of four small birds perched on a rose-laden branch above a reflective pool. Elegant script reads “Over! the sweet summer closes” and “The reign of the roses is done,” signed “Becket.” The aged paper shows subtle discoloration and scalloped edges, evoking Edwardian-era sentimentality and botanical illustration style.

Used in digital archives, museum collections, or vintage ephemera blogs to illustrate early 20th-century stationery design, seasonal poetry, or ornithological illustration trends; appeals to users researching antique calendars, postcard history, or decorative art.
