A nice vintage travel card. This one was mailed in 1949, with a one cent stamp.
The reverse text is interesting, too.
Vintage postcards from the past to use in scrapbooking, collage and art. A collection of fun, funky, interesting, vintage postcards, ephemera, photographs and images.

Back to School
I love this humorous vintage note card. Since my kids went back to school last week, I thought it might be appropriate...

Vintage Redford & Newman
Classic Robert Redford and Paul Newman as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, 1969. This postcard was printed in Madrid.
Quite a handsome pair, don't you think?

Laundry Line Notes
I have been finding more treasures - looking through boxes that have been stored away for years or while cleaning out the drawers of an old dresser. Post cards, note cards, greeting cards galore! Here's the first few to share, from a set of pretty note cards I found in the back of a drawer of an old desk; there are about 10 different designs, here are two, with the center one being what the backs look like - a little post card.
I love the kistchy laundry theme . These would be great for scrapbooking or collage. Feel free to "borrow" and use the image. Right click the image and save to your computer for later use. There are a few more images in this collection, I will post them over the next few weeks. Enjoy!

Caption this!
What do you think this old cowyboy would be saying in this photo. I assume it's a re-enactment of sorts of a "Wild West" scene.
Caption this:
"C'mon, Bess, you need more git up in your giddy-up!"

Vintage Bathing Beauty
A simple, vintage bathing beauty... I am not sure what she's lounging on, but it doesn't look comfortable. The back of the card has no identifying marks or name, perhaps she's a movie starlet from a time gone by.

Googly Gator
This googly gator gets me every time - he has a squeaker embedded in between two layers of card. When ever I pull a new card to post, he gives a squeak!
