Free Halloween Junk Journal Paper

I haven't been here for a few days, I apologize.  Life kind of got crazy for a bit.  

I made a spooky spidery paper this morning. It kind of reminds me of some old wallpaper that someone forgot to dust. I hope that you can use this!
This is 8" x 8" and I'm not sure you'll get the full sized download from Facebook so you can get it from my Dropbox:

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 Witch Postcard - Red Lantern


I have a lot of favorite Halloween postcards, but this is near the top of the list. Published by Landsdorf in early 1900's, this is part of a series of lantern witches. Each postcard has a witch with a different color lantern, and what your fate will be if you happen to see her.
These postcards are really hard to find in good condition. They were embossed I believe, and there's usually lots of chipping. Most of the ones I've found are too damaged for me to restore properly, but this one was in great shape.
They also had glitter, and you can see remnants around the witch and the moon. I'm always on the hunt for the other lantern colors!

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.

This is one of the many children's books that were published by Raphael Tuck in the early part of the 1900s. One of my favorite things about this illustration is the way Busy Bees is drawn. 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 Halloween Postcard - Weaver Witch


Sometimes my favorite Halloween cards aren't the most colorful. I adore this one because of the design, poem, and the lettering. This was drawn by E. Weaver, and I can't find any information about him or her. I know that they illustrated a series of postcards like this one, all with similar ink work. Hope you like this!
It also has one of those cute little turn of the century red roofed houses in the corner. I'm estimating this card as maybe 1910 or so? I could be wrong

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 Witch Postcard - Falls Down a Hill


This Halloween postcard was published by Whitney, but I'm still trying to find out the name of the artist. Kind of like a Jack and Jill scene, I thought it was really sweet!
