Caption this!

Another wise looking woman from an old, vintage black and white photo card.  She is dressed for the photo - hat, scarf, gloves and a fancy skirt.  No identifying markings on this card.  I wonder what her story is...

Vacation in the Ocean State

This one is a great travel card for the State of Rhode Island - not always the first place I think of for sun and the beach - but, it looks great in this card, doesn't it!

Wild Rose

A great reproduction, color postcard, labeled "Rosie 1909" 
I love how goofy she is - what a silly card.

She looks like a wise woman, doesn't she?  What advice do you think she would give?
This one is from an unused vintage black and white photo with a basic postcard back.

Vacation, anyone?

This is a nice tourist card from Fisherman's Warf in San Fransisco.  Funny card, though.  Look at all the people in the background who weren't really part of the photo.  They guy in the hat, on the right is wondering what the heck is going on!  Not sure all the flailing crabs will entice me to a vacation.

Another little piggy...

This is a lighter take on the pig card:

A fun vacation card proclaiming: "Met a lot of suckers here!"
The illustrations is a bit playful and fun on this color, vintage postcard.
