CloseStraight from Connecticut, May 28, 1950, this vintage-inspired mugshot greeting card captures a moment that says everything without saying a word.
Featuring a young woman with a visible black eye and bandages, this authentic-style mugshot from Big House Greetings (by The 3 Sisters Design Co) is paired with the perfectly understated inside caption:
“Things may have gotten a little out of hand.”
Dry. Dark. Impossibly effective.
The humor here is all in the contrast, the serious black-and-white imagery meets a line that lands somewhere between awkward honesty and absolute comedic gold. It’s the kind of card that gets a slow blink… and then a laugh.
Printed in the USA on premium cardstock, this 5" x 7" greeting card is ideal for anyone who appreciates vintage aesthetics, subtle sarcasm, and humor that doesn’t need to shout to be funny.
Perfect for:
Each card includes a white envelope and arrives neatly packaged in a protective plastic sleeve, ready for gifting, mailing, or adding to a curated card collection.
Paired with our other mugshot cards (especially the Carol card!), this one is a standout favorite for customers who like their humor a little more restrained and a lot more clever.
