It is a congratulatory card which was drawn on the tracing-paper as a frame headbande in a Pomorian style. There is a text of congratulations in the center of the frame: "Dear Praskovia Samojlovna, happy holiday. O. Alexeev. 1970, 22 of April". It is not an Easter congratulations as the Easter was on the 26th of April in 1970. Perhaps, the card was drawn on the tracing-paper as the headbande was copied from some manuscript.
