Description

The "P" card in a set that may be intended to teach reading and articulation through alliteration. "Penelope Postlethwaite pampered a proud & pursy palfrey. If Penelope Postlethwaite pampered a proud & pursy palfrey, where is this proud & pursy palfrey which Penelope Postlethwaite pampered?" A woman with a haughty expression and upturned nose feeds hay to a white horse.
