Title

Krampus Between a Couple

Description

This postcard has a mostly light blue background, with a white stripe on the right side. On the postcard, a young woman and young man stare lovingly at each other while a Krampus stands between them with its arms around them. The Woman sits on the left side of the postcard wearing a white high-neck blouse with gold decorations and her right fist at her hip while her left arm rests across her lap. The Krampus is all black except for its long red tongue and two horns. Its tongue hangs out over its chest between the couple. In its right hand it holds a bundle of branches which rests across the woman's chest. In its left hand it holds a bright red heart above the man's shoulder. The man is on the right side of the postcard and looks at the young woman. He wears a dark brown suit and has a curled mustache. There is handwriting along the upper right corner of the postcard in blue ink, as well as along the white stripe on the left side of the card.
