Didn't they look like a happy couple. Wonder why she isn't smiling though? Maybe her corset was too tight. Could be what caused the split-up between Lady Liberty and Uncle Sam.
I really like the Patriotic cards... Hmmmm, I'm thinking that this gal kinda has the Mona Lisa "smile" going on! Enjoy your weekend... ~blessings~ Pearl
Actually , I think she looks a bit bewildered. It might have to do with Sam's leering smile and his grip that's even tighter than her corset. Happy PFF Dahlink!
We don't see her around any more. I wonder why the military didn't use her on their recruitment posters? Maybe there was a real life break-up? Scandalous! Beautiful, fun card - thanks for sharing!

That is one colourful card, there Sparky! I was in the U.S. of A for the Bicentennial in 1976. We toured all the Civil War sites and visited Betsy Ross's house - Washington D.C., Arlington Cemetery. Hey! I just realized the other day, if I'm watching "Jeopardy" and I need to remember when the Civil War began, I only have to think it was exactly 100 years before I was born! (It took me about that long to work it out.)
What a beautiful card!! I think she's smiling, even if a little pinched. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat card. I know why she isn't smiling! Sjhe is homesick.

ReplyDeleteAnother patriotic card .. I am thinking Ms Liberty is serious and Uncle Sam is one of those men who likes to make jokes ...
ReplyDeleteShe's unhappy because she caught Uncle Sam making time with the green statue in New York Harbor.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me want to sing the National Anthem!
