Halloween Postcard - Boy and Cornstalk

Ok, this is my favorite too! Ellen Clapsaddle is my hero, she was so talented. I'm in love with this sweet little boy hiding behind a corn stalk on Halloween!

Vintage Pumpkin Label

This little vintage pumpkin can label would make a great tag or scrapbook piece. It's about 3". When I get some time later I'm going to try to vector it in Illustrator so I can get the image larger. If it works I'll post it later.

Vintage Halloween Postcard - Keyhole Witch

This great halloween postcard is part of a series of keyhole themed cards. I'm not sure of the artist, but I have several of them. The images are embossed and have a metallic ink border.

This one has a bit of a story to it. The witch in the image is playing an old party game where you put flour in a bowl and pack it down as hard as you can. You tip it out onto a plate and put a ring, or something else fun on top of the pile. Players use a knife to slice away the flour, and the one who makes the ring fall has to either do a stunt, or "won't get married that year", or something else. It's fun, I used to do this with my kids (we used gummy bears).

Halloween Postcard - Scrying for Husbands

I was going to say that this was my favorite postcard, but I'd be lying because I love them all!!

In this one two pretty ladies are scrying on Halloween night, no doubt trying to find out who they will marry.

Halloween Greetings Postcard

This is one of my favorite Clapsaddle postcards. I love the big eyed kid and the smiling pumpkin. I think the antique and vintage Halloween images are so much better than todays.

Around the 50s and 60s the imagery started changing to cutesy, and then later on to horror. Don't get me wrong, I love a good haunted horror house (and we have some great ones around here), but the old Halloween stuff makes me nostalgic.
