Today's blog entry showcases a couple of Edwardian 'humour' postcards. They are both published by Mint Heritage Ltd., which until I found these cards was a publishing house I'd not heard of. The postcards are in such good condition I'm almost tempted to suggest they might be reproductions, but my research has only surfaced originals, dating to 1905.

ReplyDeleteI wonder if the "bear - behind" was considered racy at the time?
ReplyDeleteI sure hope that's a bustle under there.
ReplyDeleteI have some old comic postcards in a similar style that look almost new. But "Mint Heritage" doesn't sound like an old-fashioned name.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I suppose it was racy , BARE behind!! Raaararar!
