Winsch Halloween Postcard 1911


John Winsch was a postcard publisher in business between about 1907 to 1915. He used various artists, including Samuel Schmucker, for his cards. I think this card is Schmucker's, it looks like his work. I love this one!

Vintage Halloween Postcard


There are several versions of this Taggart postcard, the most common one I've seen has a witch inside the pumpkin. This one features two rather surprised kids who will probably end up kissing unexpectedly! This was published in 1908.

Halloween Pumpkin Witch Postcard Free Download

This is one of the slightly less common pumpkin girl postcards that Whitney published. I have no idea what the black hoodoo is, maybe the magic she's cooking up in the cauldron? Anyway, hope you like it!!

Vintage Halloween Precautions Postcard

The elusive E. Nash was a postcard publisher around the early 1910s and is famous for his series of Halloween postcards, both the Halloween Don'ts, and Halloween Precautions. This is one of the 6 Precautions postcards. He also published many other holiday cards.
The Don'ts and Precautions are all really quirky. This one says: Avoid grinning black cats on a full green moon, If your lover is true he'll come back soon, It breaks the charm, the witches scream, and never return till next Halloween.

Vintage Victorian Trade Card - Witch Hazel


Such a pretty witch hazel trade card, you don't even notice that it's for piles (hemorrhoids) 
I love the smell of witch hazel. On really hot days I'll sometimes put it on my horse after he's had a bath. Makes him smell great!

Vintage Halloween Postcard - Whitney Witch


Whitney cards are among my favorites! Just a little history, George C. Whitney, after a stint in the Union Army went into business with his brother who ran a stationery shop in Worcester Mass. The company produced Valentine cards and then branched out to other holidays, and items. His Halloween cards are favorites of many collectors. Sadly, the business was liquidated in 1942, but you can still visit the Whitney Historical Museum in Worcester!

This pretty Lily of the Valley image was the cover of an old poetry pamphlet. I hope you like it! We used to have Lily of the Valley growing around the patio of my old house, but I can't seem to get it to grow around here. It's one of my favorite flowers!
