Hey! Lookie what I found!

A vintage Halloween card that my mother (age six - well, I think actually her mom did it on her behalf) gave her grandmother! So fun, it's postmarked October 30, 1927.

  2. Hi Pam! Isn't it fun! I found a several postcards and Christmas cards that my mom's grandmother had saved - and in turn her family kept them and now it's my turn to cherish them!

  3. What a great find! I love vintage Halloween cards. My Mom still sends reproductions of them to me by mail each October!

  4. Hi Stephanie! I could only find the one Halloween card so far in her belongings, but what treasure! There are quite a few Christmas cards she received and they're postcards for the most part, rather than what we're used to. So much fun and of course so dear, since there's an actual family connection.
    How fun and so very sweet you and your mom share a love of vintage Halloween cards and that she enjoys giving them to you! I miss my mom so much - we shared a lot of interests, I'm realizing now!
