Halloween Postcard - Pumpkin Man

This postcard was published around 1905 and is one of my favorites. It features a veggie pumpkin man (veggie people were very popular Halloween card subjects then) and a grumpy looking witch.

Frexias Halloween Postcard

This is a pretty rare postcard. It was illustrated by Jason Frexias who worked with the Winsch publishing company. He's known for his toddler characters and has a large series of postcards that were done in the early 1900s. His work wasn't copyrighted and has been copied extensively. I'm not a fan of his toddlers, but I love the overall look of his halloween illustrations.

Victorian Corset Trade Card

I love all kinds of antique ephemera. I found this great corset trade card. For anyone interested in typography and turn of the century design, this has it all! I didn't do much to clean it up because I really like the age and wrinkles.

Victorian Trade Card - Cures Everything!

This Victorian trade card is so pretty. I also love the fact that it's advertising one of those spurious medical cures (cures catarrh, hay fever, and deafness). I'm guessing this creme was probably similar to Vicks, full of menthol and not much more. Hope you like it!
