Halloween Postcards From The Past

        I have a few Antique Halloween postcards that I will clean for folks to craft with under this post; check back to see updates as I scan, clean and repair them before the spooky season arrives. Please link back to my collection if you use them on the web for articles or sample crafts only folks!

''Halloween  Greetings'' postcard. The gentleman dressed in a tuxedo and his date, dressed in a
yellow gown, are going out on the town for Halloween festivities. The lady wears a mask and
carries a black feather fan and traditional black hat too. Behind the couple is a very
large pumpkin.

This postcard is a very old illustration of a little 
girl wearing a Jack-O-Lantern larger than her
head! The pumpkin decorated with a blue
bonnet and red feather.
  
''What the boys did to the cow.'' text and cow with two Jack-O-Lanterns on it's horns. A farmer's
wife looks on stunned. She drops her milking stool and tin bucket. She is wearing a white 
bonnet, apron, and country print dress. There is a cow pen, farmhouse and tree in illustration.

''Hallowe'en Greetings'' a court jester wears a wizard's cap. A black cat, black bat and 
black witch on her broom stick all run from a skeleton ringing a bell...

  
''Happy Halloween'' text, two scarecrows romance each other
under the man in the moon and the evening stars, while cat
looks on.


A little girl afraid of her own shadow.

A boy carves a Jack-O-Lantern in the haystacks.
