An acquired taste, I doubt that Emma Jane would have been a fan of this outfit. However, it may have found a place - in somebody else's closet. #EmmaJanesFavoriteFashions #bestarnoldcards

We insist. It's Spring! Then again, maybe this is not the time to discuss the situation. There seems to be a coating of "talcum powder" hiding the lawn. And more "plowable" accumulations are forecast. I wonder what's in the young lady's bag.... Any guesses? See comments for the back of the card. #EmmaJanesFavoriteFashions #bestarnoldcards
