Books and Valentines - Thrift Share Monday


Tiny vintage Valentine's - embossed paper cards that fold open  to display.


Surprisingly robust for their age...and how old could they be? No idea! 1920's?


I like the tissue accordion detail on this one!


Mid-century and later children's books came home with me too. Bold graphics in few colors.


A school reader - Jane Eyre - and a Rosalind Welcher gift book with rose colored pages.


More kids books - same thrift shop - someone had cleared their shelves!


And a valentines postcard - this one dating to 1915 by the postmark.

Not feeling especially chatty today, but I'm glad to see Apron Thrift Girl has a link up for this week, so I can join in.

REVISED: At least there was a link post up this morning, but now not there - I'll link when it's again active.







Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Jacki, what finds! I especially love old children's books. Would love to know more about that edition of Jane Eyre. A school reader? Interesting.
