CARDS Birthday Card Die cut card, bagged, includes a decorative envelope. We plucked these images from our rich collection of greeting cards; most are from the 1950's. While this era's design sensibilities are not often celebrated, this offering of stuffed animals, adorable puppies, smiling elephants and more has a naive charm that is very appealing and lacking in todays highly computer graphic designs. The die cutting emphasizes the cards' blunt graphic appeal. The colors are vivid, and the appropriately light-hearted greetings are suitable for general birthday use. While certainly suitable for giving to a child, we think these cards will also appeal to many adults for nostalgic reasons, evoking memories of birthdays past, of cakes decorated with cowboys or ballerinas, games of musical chairs or the thrill of a visiting clown or magician.
STICKERS These stickers all have practical applications: they point, they monogram,
they decorate correspondence; they label boxes, trunks, gifts, jars and so
on. This set is a great selection of Victorian hands writing, pointing
and directing. Each label is die-cut to shape.
