The history of Easter-spring cards in Bulgaria is told in a book by Dr. Petar Velichkov - literary historian, journalist and poet. The first Bulgarian Easter card in his collection is from 1898 - a color lithograph of a scene of the Resurrection of Christ in a series of paintings. The text on the obverse reads: "Christ is Risen!". Printed in the town of Samokov by the Lesichevi Brothers publishing house.

In a richly illustrated publication entitled "Easter and Spring Cards from the Third Bulgarian Kingdom" (1878-1946), the researcher includes both cards produced in the West in special editions for Bulgaria, as well as those drawn by Bulgarian artists and printed in specialized children's books and magazines .
