Three Parisian, real photo postcard images with ladies dressed for New Years and Christmas. Yours to use and peruse.
Some French postcards would come in a series, like mini soap operas that each tell a little story. Some have captions, this pair with children does not so we are left to wonder if a wrong note set off this brawl.
Postcards with pairs of children dressed up. The top card is French, the bottom is British. Yours to use & peruse.
Two real photo postcard (RPPC) portraits commemorating young boys confirmation. The top postcard is of a French lad, the bottom is American (labeled young Raymond).
I have always longed to fly with the birds above the clouds in a hot air balloon (and then bungee jump off the side.) Recently I've purchased a few postcards to use as backdrops for my new for Makers Faire '09, steampunk hot air balloon necklaces. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26635335 Printed in Germany, mailed from Stamford, England to New England in 1911. This one reminds me of the fantastical steampunk collage creations by http://www.WinonaCookie.Etsy.com A California Honeymoon. Postcard by Edward H. Mitchell, San Francisco, CA, 1919. French New Years postcard from the early 1900's, embellished with glitter & sequins. Feel free to use & peruse the images.
