C. Carey Cloud » Toys » Rocking Bread Rabbits
Carey Cloud designed these rocking rabbits for the C. J. Patterson Company of Kansas City, Missouri. C. J. Patterson Co. operated the bakery that made ARK Bread and Holsum Bread, thus their name is on the copyright.
Bunny holiday cards were made for Valentine's Day, Easter, the Fourth of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
If the bunny looks familiar, it's because shortly after these cards were made, Lewis Brothers Bakery bought the rights to the rabbit for their bread. Which became Bunny Bread.
