About Me
- Christine H.
- I love antique postcards because they preserve evidence of everyday life as well as celebrations and sad events. Looking at an old postcard is like holding a single piece of a puzzle; we have to imagine the rest. I will try to put up a postcard every day. If you have a special request for a particular city or place, let me know!
Hi Christine! What an odd little postcard that Dixon's stove polish is! I guess those little elves make you so curious you want to buy the product. Sorta like the sea monkeys used to be in the old comic books! Ha Ha!
ReplyDeleteWonderful postcard!
ReplyDeleteVery cute. Those look like Brownies.
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you run across the phone number for these guys. Great postcard. Love the artwork.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, it looks like the inhabitants of an Hieronymus Bosch painting let loose in the kitchen- part amusing, part terrifying!!
ReplyDeleteSo much of an era!

Das sind ja nette Gesellen, die erinnern an die kölner Heinzelmännchen
ReplyDeleteWhat an absolutely awesome card! These look like they were modelled on the Palmer Cox Brownies.
ReplyDeleteLOVE it!
ReplyDeletePlease let them know they have a standing invitation to my house to polish anything they want, including the cob webs, dust bunnies .....
