(don't worry - no master copy post service cards were harmed inward the process!)
I honey the alter inward flavor from summertime to fall. By belatedly August/early September our local grocery store already has Halloween candy on display! Is it a combat likewise early on for that? Maybe, but the lure of Halloween is 1 that I’ve always establish specially charming. I love vintage Halloween items. Decorations, masks, costumes as well as postcards from years past have quite a unlike charm than those nosotros run into today.
The nostalgia of yesteryear is apparent inward these vintage collectibles, as well as for many, brings back memories of childhood fun as well as games, costumes as well as trick-or-treating.
Halloween genuinely is a timeless holiday. What other fourth dimension of twelvemonth allows us to live on something we are not, to fully usage our imagination as well as permit reality to skid away, fifty-fifty if simply for 1 night?
Halloween Postcards
I 1 time read somewhere that Halloween collectibles are to a greater extent than desirable than collectibles from whatever other holiday, amongst Halloween postcards beingness to a greater extent than or less of the close sought afterward items create to their rarity. The illustrations as well as color lithography on these cards are beautiful.
Depictions of witches, dark cats, jack’0 lanterns, every bit good every bit fortune games as well as scenes of children bobbing for apples are mutual designs. I personally am intrigued yesteryear those with anthropomorphic figures; the corn-cob human being as well as the grinning pumpkin caput girl, vegetable people amongst grin faces.
It’s amazing to intend that at 1 fourth dimension (around the belatedly 1800’s as well as on) Halloween postcards were 1 time every bit pop every bit Christmas cards!
Be certain to banking concern fit out my Halloween Postcard Jewelry. H5N1 few of them are reversible, amongst a unlike vintage Halloween icon on each side. Others characteristic a unmarried icon on 1 side. Each is really cool!
I’ve been making jewelry from antique as well as vintage postcards for a release of years now, and in my opinion, the Halloween images are the close intriguing than those of whatever other
holiday. (Aside from Halloween I also brand them amongst Christmas, Easter, Valentine’s Day
and St. Patrick’s Day postcards) …And don’t worry, no master copy postcards are harmed inward the process!
