Vintage Americana

A fun project this winter has been working with Rene Bane, who bought a wonderful old postcard album.  The album belonged to an Oklahoma woman and spans the decades from 1901 to 1954.  Some of them are holiday greetings for Christmas, New Year, Valentines, St. Patrick's Day and other holidays.  Some are travel postcards from typical tourist attractions in a time in the distant past-- Saguaro Cactus, The Painted Desert, Grand Canyon.  Some are of wildlife and landscapes.  Some are buildings and cars which look very, very different.  These are scanned and offered for sale as postcards, vintage greetings, coffee mugs and the like.  More are being added as time permits.
