Notes
Content: "The early peach blossom 'appears' in March, and on the third of the month--the Girls' Festival--it is always used in the decorations, and so this day is also called the Peach Festival. This Peach Festival is a great day with children for it is also 'The Feast of Dolls,' it being the one day in the year in which the dolls of the house are brought out and exhibited."--printed on verso.
