These postcards are all from the early 1900’s. They were all sent to Dear’s Great, great Aunt Emma. She really enjoyed getting postcards and her friends and family made sure to send her one on any special occassion.

Such sweet old postcards!
Wonderful antique postcards !!
I am partial to Mr. and Mrs. Turkey (or are they courting?) in their corncob car, with the lemon wheels. All of these cards are such fine art. Alas, you don’t see much art like this in these days. But all colorful and whimsical. A happy Ruby Tuesday!
I notice that the old cards and postcards have so much intricate detail on them. They are lovely.
The corn ear racer is the best for me! It is similar to the pinewood derby car our daughter Karen and I made. And won the races with it. They are all nice!

The postcards are just gorgeous, as is the work you have made combining them to this wonderful Ruby Thanksgiving Tuesday.
