This vintage Halloween postcard depicts a whimsical scene of four pumpkin-headed children attempting to steal a wooden gate. Each child has a large, orange pumpkin for a head with a painted-on face, complete with rosy cheeks and expressive eyes. They are dressed in old-fashioned clothing: dark jackets, striped shirts, and Mary Jane shoes. They are all working together to lift and carry the gate, which is slightly askew. Behind them is a quaint, two-story house with a gabled roof and visible windows. A small sign reading 'KEEP OFF THE GRASS' is posted near the gate. The scene is set on a road with a patch of green grass beside it. The overall style is charming and nostalgic, typical of vintage Halloween imagery. Below the illustration, there's a caption that reads: 'On Hallowe'en we'll steal the gate and kilter everything that's straight.'
