Singer Ad Card



Ah, the wonder of owning a Singer Sewing Machine in the 1920s!  I love this trade advertising card - mostly because of the gorgeous yellow warbler... but also because the ad promises you can make the dress of your dreams in one "happy afternoon!"  Just love that.  The original card measures 4.5 by 6 inches.  Note that at that size, the egg is depicted at "natural size" and the warbler is at "3/4 size."  Isn't that sweet?

Chadbourne & Co. Advertisement


I love the rich colors in this elegant antique advertising card.  The original is a bit smaller than a postcard.

Pugs on Parade!





For all of you Pug Lovers out there! My favorite is the little chef - could she be mixing up a batch of yummy pancakes? Or cupcakes for Game Day?

Ephemera


Can you imagine your realtor handing you a coupon that would entitle you to a $5 discount upon purchase of a house or plot of land? And, imagine the joy of being able to blot out those "Mis-fit Shirt" memories once and for all!
