vintage recycling: 1940s Hallmark Rufftex

"What kind of a card do you want?"the clerk said, But me, I said nothing and looked straight ahead...

I couldn't come out and just tell her, you see, For she was an absolute stranger to me...... So while she kept staring and standing near by I kept right on waiting without saying why....

Because, well,you see ~~ I had sort of a hunch Before very long she might go out to lunch! .... I looked at the cards that said "Greetings to Mother" and "Father" and "Uncle" and "Sister" and "Brother"

And watched for a chance when the clerk wasn't near And grabbed this one labeled "To Somebody Dear!" ..... "There's no need to wrap it," I said to the clerk~~ So proud and so pleased with my half a day's work....
