Ystävyydestä!
Anneli was kind enough to send this reproduction of a turn of the (20th) century divided-back card from Finland; it is the first card of this type I’ve seen that’s not in the English language.
She translates the poem as: “I would love to make a band of beautiful flowers for you, my friend, friend whose picture is in my heart.”
