My personal collection of postcards

Because I was asked, here are a few pictures of the postcards in my hallway. Every picture is of a different display in my hallway. Because they're not in direct sunlight I don't have to worry about them fading.

The ones above are all Thanksgiving postcards.

These are a combination of Halloween and Thanksgiving postcards.

Love the ones with the mirrors. And the center one above hubby bought me as a surprise. I love it!

 

 Again, all three postcards feature mirrors. Not sure why I love them so much, but I do. :)

 

Here are the only Christmas postcards I have. I collected these because I love the candles

Something You Might Not Know About Me...

 

Here's a little something many of you might not know about me.

In the early days of Ebay I started to collect vintage Halloween postcards. I love the graphics and have many framed as artwork on my walls. I especially love those postcards that feature mirrors or pumpkins. I haven't bought a new one in years as the prices have gotten way out of hand, but I love the ones I do own.

Sometimes there's even a message written on the back. It's fascinating to see where the card was mailed from and where it was sent. Many of the artists working at the time did incredible work.

I own all three of the cards I've shown and a few more. My hallway is a gallery, which also includes a series of six Christmas candle postcards, which I'll post at Christmas. As well, I have some "harvest" themed Thanksgiving postcards, again featuring pumpkins. This is my kind of art!
