This week's Sepia Saturday theme of books forced me to go to a lower level of searching for something suitable. I've posted blog articles on various books before over on my vintage books and magazines blog but didn't want to re-use an old post so I turned instead to my vintage postcards. Unfortunately only one of them had the word book in the title of the postcard, well the title I'd filed it under, so I had to look through vast numbers of them until I found one that had a suitable image of a book. Hopefully you'll think it was worth the searching.
Forget-me-not, vintage postcard, c.1912

Indeed -- worth the search. The colors are so pretty in that postcard.
ReplyDeleteI always love forget me not images.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful - well worth the search, thanks for sharing. I am very envious of your collection, I think I would look at them all the time!
ReplyDeleteA forget me not from 100 years ago. Well found.
ReplyDeleteThat postcard is pretty enough to frame and hang on a wall. Glad you searched until you found it.
ReplyDeleteNow I just knew that this theme would be right up your street.
ReplyDeleteI love postcards with forget-me-nots. This one's a real beauty.
ReplyDeleteI like postcards both with forget-me-nots and books. That is how I got started on my post too--a postcard with an image of an open book.
ReplyDeleteOn account of those forget-me-nots, and all the research you put in, I give you a Thumbs up!!.

PS: I'm pretty sure you'll consider relabelling your material now...
Worth the effort, its a pretty card with a pleasing composition of words and flowers.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely worth the search - the postcard is so pretty, and has Valentine's Day implications :-) Jo (at imagespast.wordpress.com, I'm having trouble commenting on Blogger posts with my Wordpress ID)
