Vintage 1868 Catalog Flower Girl: Free Image

2/26/2015

0 Comments

 
This Old Fashioned Image was scanned from a Circa 1868 Children’s Magazine belonging to Karen from the graphics fairy. You will have to run over there is you want a copy of the original black and white as no one is allowed to share the originals from her site as is.

 But  I will post a mini (the original is huge 300 dpi) so that you can see the before and after.  Using coloring tools in Photoshop or Corel you can color vintage black and white images much like mine on the right. How she came to be colored thus tho was an accident which I will share on the Inferior design page tomorrow if I have time.  However I have t say it was a happy mistake because in the end I think she came out gorgeous and I share her with you to be able to put on cards tags and what not. The clear PNG verions (and there are something like 6 total for this) will be in the store soon and free for members.  Anyway Enjoy and lets see your DIY projects with her.

So as you can see the original is the one here on the left. Again if you wish to get the full size run on over to Karen's as this one will not enlarge to anything useful.
Enjoy!

This is an image from the catalog pages of S.A. Smith & Company 1883. The Tally Ho Sulky which they bill as a "boys" only item as well as for 15 year olds. Now I don't know about you but weren't boys 15 years of age already learning the family business and already had a real horse? I just don't see 15 years olds from any era wanting to play on this lol. But I would...and I am a girl.

So I have a wonderful surprise for you.  You see I came across the vintage photo of the little girl on the left about 2 weeks ago and I always keeping my eyes open for the gorgeous, fun and unusual.  I then came across the Happy Birthday Card below a week later.  I had thought the little girl was familiar so I went through my shots and lo and behold its the same girl!  This is the first time I have ever come across this situation and I had to share it with you.

I call her creepy doll for a reason.  Look into her large eyes on the left and they are mesmerizing and spooky.  Such a beautiful little girl.  I wonder who she is and where she is now.

Sunlight Soap Ad 1876

8/4/2014

 
This unusual Sunlight Soap ad featured an endorsement by Dr. Charles A. Cameron Who states " I use it in my own Toilette." Which of course my first thought was "toilet" and for a brief second thought, "Wait I thought it was laundry soap not toilet bowl cleaner." Ok derka moment there but I couldn't help the track my brain was on.  Then of course I understood what the good Dr. meant. What I found interesting is he was talking about the alkali. I didn't even realize people were even concerned about such things in 1876. But there you go.
