An RPPC from my collection. This was part of a large collection of photos of a German family. Most of the photos were military in nature and dated from World War II. This was one of the exceptions. I assume this girl was the sister or cousin of the young men in the World War II photos. She holds a large cornucopia that was probably full of all kinds of treats.

“In some parts of Switzerland, children may receive a small gift on their first day of school, but it’s not a nationwide tradition
A Schultüte! It was full of school supplies and treats, and was fairly common in parts of Germany on a child’s first day of school. Some communities still carry on the tradition, including a few German-American areas of Texas.
