The following from card back: Pinx: from the Latin: pinx-it meaning she painted this. These cards began with a handpainted Valentine, hence the name Pinx. Printed on recycled paper. This card "A DAy to Remember" was designed by Cecie McCaffery, a vegetarian and animal advocate, living in Southern California with her family and many animals. "To Florence and the Elephant Alliance, May freedom reign and compassion govern." Commentary: Unusually fine watercolor illustration. Note that, as often happens, the party elephant is teamed with mice on the inside.
