One of my favorite professors in college gave me this fantastic little pamphlet book, she obviously new of my obsessions with birds, nursery rhymes, and old things. Its become one of my favorite possessions.
I have a deep and abiding love for antique trade cards, postcards and other old paper scraps. They can be so funny or strange, or can just be beautiful little pieces of art. I can't seem to pass up buying a stack when I come across them so I have quite a collection going at this point! I have treasure boxes full that I look though whenever I'm feeling uninspired. It seems a shame to keep them all to myself though, so I thought I'd use this blog as a place to show them off, and to share new pieces as I find them!
Oh, and please, if you repost any of these images just credit this blog thank you.
