I'm a little late again today. I took my horse out for a ride before it got hot. He was actually more interested in staying with his friends and munching grass, and he let me know that several times on the walk :-) He has built in barn GPS!!!

I love this Raphael Tuck postcard. Raphael Tuck & Sons, based in London, was the world's largest postcard publisher during the late 19th and early 20th century. They also made wonderful children's books, and when I find some, I'll post them for you.

His animal postcards are beautiful. Hope you like this one! I put it on an aged background for you.

So it's getting closer to Halloween (yeah, I know it's only July, but I like to anticipate!). I'm working on fall crafts already, and if you are too, I thought you might like this. The pumpkin label is from the late 1800's and is one of the best examples of decorative advertising, in my opinion. Here it is in full color, and with an aged background.

Antique Lady Illustration in Vintage Frame

This Victorian lady was from an antique book. I put her on a piece of old paper and added a little bit of color. There are two other options, one with no color, and just the frame. I hope that you have fun with these.

Vintage Flower Illustrations Art Deco Style

Today's image is 3 floral panels from the American Type Founders Cut Book published in 1900. They were photoengravers who made metal relief plates for letterpress printing. A customer would look at the book and choose the images that they would like to use for prints or advertising. I added an aged background which would look nice framed.
