Dover makes a wonderful selecetion of Postacrd books. I am going to see how they go and maybe we can
add some more to this category.
The postcards can be sent in the mail, added to scrapbook pages, aletered book pages, collage and other
projects you are working on.
Antique Advertising Cards~ You get 24 different reproduction postcard size cards (4 1/4" x 6") from
the New York Historical Society's rare collection of antique trade cards. These card were initially collected,
traded and preserved in frames and hung as artwork. The subject of the card did not necessarily related to what the
card was advertising. For instance, there is a cat all dressed up in lacy dress and flowery hat to advertise for an
optical mfg. co, frogs for tobacco co, beautiful demure little girl holding her dolly for a pill company and dolls for
a spool cotton company. These are beautiful and you probably won't want to give them away so I suggest you
bind yourself a little book or purchase a blank book and keep them to look at over and over.
$6.95
