Jodi those are great.....My husband has a large collection on old postcards as well, they are wonderful and creative!!!
This is one in a series of postcards by Charles Twelvetrees drawn in 1906.
I have the whole collection and then some but this is my absolute favorite!
I just plucked this photo off the internet, postcard is not in good condition.
My hubby collects real photo postcards of the area he grew up in and goes to lots of postcard shows. I always send him with a list of ones I want!
And this is a print he did that I absolutely love... something about the innocense... all that's missing is a teddy bear but the puppy is just as good!
Thanks Jodi and Daphne - the old cards are so lovely.

All those cards are wonderful.
Thanks for sharing. :hug:
I was trying to share some of my collection with you but I dont seem to be smart enough to uload a pic into my message lol....... I love these old cards, I have a collection I buy off Ebay on CD, only have a few original ones. Thanks for sharing everyone- I will try and try again to see if I can show you some of mine lol....
I collect cards by molly brett--she has some really cute teddy ones- they were popular in the 60's and I usually find them on e-bayfrom sellers in the UK . Check them out if you are interested. Just do a search for Molly Brett postcards. Racey Helps in another great one. All kinds of cute animals, fairies, etc, in both kinds. I take sets of three with a similar theme and put them together in a frame. They look great and make nice gifts for a baby's room. ! Ginny
All these cards are terrific. What a great topic, Jodi. Thanks for posting it!
Shelli, Thanks so much, I LOVE these cards and the ones everyone else posted
I'm 100 days late for this one, but it's the first chance I've had to sit with the scanner!
Here a just a few of my favorites.... the first here is actually a Union Pacific child's menu, it's really tiny too...just 4.5 inches tall.

Ohhhh this are really good Chrissi worth the wait. I love the bear one
Here are just a few more.... I love going through these cards! I had planned to make copies and make "ornaments" from them. Maybe this coming Christmas. Have you ever seen old cards and post cards that are between glass, foiled at the edges and then hung with a copper chain. They're so pretty that way. I have all the supplies from doing stained glass....just have to do it already!
