Abominably cute RPPC! The two children were actually named James and Sylvia, according to the back of the card. This is a British RPPC, lovely, rare and filled with dreams :)
The horseshoe logo in the stamp box on the back side was the mark of Thomas Illingworth and Co., a London paper manufacturer since around 1904, and up until about 1930. This, according to the wonderful site,

A wonderful source if you crave a deeper understanding of the details found in your collection of RPPCs. Its focus is on British photographs from 1900 to the 1950s, but much of its information is applicable to RPPCs made on the European continent, and here in the USA.
A great little RPPC! Please examine our high res scans for detail.

If you purchase two cards, we will not charge for postage on the second card, and when you purchase three or more cards from us at the same time, your shipping will be entirely free, except for international orders which, because of increases in international shipping rates will still be charged one card's shipping fees on orders of three or more. We do not charge for insurance or shipping materials, and as of the date of this listing are still charging below our overall cost on shipping.
