Merry Christmas!

Some well needed Christmas cheer!

Valentines Day So Early?

I know it isn't February yet, but if anyone wants to get a jump on some Valentines greetings, I figured I would post this lovely addiction for everyone. Either that or you can just use the flowers on the card itself.

Darling birds

A birthday greeting from the turn of the century :)

Two Witches?

Another from my family collection - best friends, sisters? I'm not sure.

Homestead

A house in my families history.

Aaaaaand we're back!

Just look at that face!

^Once again, sorry for the delay in posting. I am very bad! Here's an adorable little cherub of a girl to make up for it :D

All Fancy-like!

I would totally wear that dress. My husband would roll around on the floor laughing of course - but I would wear it, none the less.

Toddler on a Chair

^ I rather like how happy this tot seems to be :)

Group Photo

A family? A theatre production?

Merry....Christmas? Again.

An early Christmas addition for everyone.

Male Profile

A college professor...maybe a scientist working on the cure for...uh...scurvy. Always fun to guess :)

Picnic

A picnic in the "good ol' days".

Scout

Scouts/Cubs photograph from Toronto.

Fairies in My Bedroom!

They sneak in your bedroom at night and give you strange and wild dreams!

My apologies to everyone for not keeping up with my postings lately - things have been really busy in our house over the last couple of weeks. I had a convention all last weekend and my husband has started a new job - it's very hectic around here, more than usual. I'll be posting several updates tonight to try and make up for the lack of ephemera over the last little while - hope everyone's having a great week!

A Musician, Perhaps?

To me, he looks like a magician, though I'm not sure what his title really is. Who do you think he looks like?

Vintage Beauty Postcard

^ I bought this from another collector in Toronto and I really love the front image. The back has some very messy writing on it, but I thought I would scan and post it for you anyway in case anyone can use it.

Vintage Herbs - Acanthus

^ I found this in an old cyclopedia from the early 1900's. Acanthus, also called bear's breeches, and is the basis for the architectural style by the same name.

Prom, Perhaps?

^This lovely young lady looks like she's either about to go on a "date", or going to some sort of party, like a prom (did they even have Proms in the 20's? lol)

Mischief Makers

^ To me, these three boys look like they're about to get up to some serious mischief. I rather like how casual they all look. Reminds me of something straight out of Oliver Twist or Dickens in general - what do you think?
