Vintage Christmas Postcard - Santa with Toys


If you've never had a chance to go to a Christkindlmarkt (Christmas market), you should definitely try to make it some year. We go to the Christmas market in Bethlehem PA and it's so much fun! There's food, crafts, glass blowing demonstrations, a bazillion ornaments for sale, and did I mention food?
This postcard reminds me of the markets I've been to. Some have people in period dress walking around with toys hanging from a wooden display just like this vintage Santa in the postcard!
If you are close to Bethlehem PA here is the link for this year's market:


Postcard is free to download for personal use.

Vintage Christmas Postcard - Watching for Santa


This one reminds me of me and my cousins on Christmas eve, hanging out of the window at my Grandma's house looking for Santa. Grandpa used to go outside and ring sleigh bells, and we'd all try to find the sleigh. Another one of my favorite Christmas postcards! I think this one is so sweet. Illustrated by Ellen Clapsaddle.

Vintage Can Label - Butterfly Brand Beans


I didn't know that I had this label, it's amazing what happens when you clean! Olney and Floyd sold canned goods in the very early 1900s and the label art is amazing. You've probably seen their pumpkin label, but the bean one is just as pretty.
I enlarged this a bit, the original label is pretty small.

Christmas Postcard - Birds in Tree


I love birds and have multiple bird feeders in the back yard. I think I'm going to get some little baskets and fill them with seed and decorate my pine trees just like this Christmas postcard! They would look sweet tied on with red bows.

Vintage Thanksgiving Alphabet Card


Turkeys can't help the way they look!  I thought this child's alphabet card (published by Raphael Tuck) was pretty funny. There is a series of these, but Mr. Turkey was the hapless victim for the letter "T"

Vintage Trade Card - Calendar


Just in case you need a calendar (it's a little out of date)! Courtesy of Hoyts German Cologne and Rubifoam (tooth powder). My Grandma used to buy tooth powder when we were kids. I tried it, the kind she used tased like wintergreen. I think Rubifoam was perfume flavored. I can't imagine what that would taste like!

Vintage Thread Trade Card Calendar


Happy November! I'm always a little sad the day after Halloween, it's like we have to get back to the mundane world, no more witches, spooks, and mystery.
This is the back of a folded thread trade card - the backs of the cards are often just as cool as the pictures on the front. This one was hiding a calendar!
