Just when you think you've found all of the best vintage postcards available, another group of wondrously colored illustrations appear on an aisle at an antique mall or flea market and you...or I should say I...cannot resist their call.
I have found many beautiful vintage postcards depicting swans and this is one of my favorites. There's just something about the grace and beauty of the swan that captures that wonderful aura of the far off fairyland we read about as children so long ago. Memories are sweet!
I'm participating in RUBY TUESDAY today which is hosted by WORK OF THE POET! To see more RUBY participants click HERE! Have a great time everyone and enjoy the jewels of the day!

Such lovely postcards. I just wish they made them like this today. We should start a new fad of sending postcards once again just to greet people. The only ones I receive in my mailbox are advertisements and store announcements.
ReplyDeleteLovely cards Coralia.

Coralie,
ReplyDeleteA lovely card. Enchanting to think we could ride on a swan's back. We see swans on our river through out the summer.
Blessings!

I so regret getting rid of my 900 vintage postcards, let me tell you. I love visiting yours & Terry's.
ReplyDeleteHave a beauatiful day, sweet friend. Hugs, Marydon
Coralie, you are so right! There Is no place like an antique mall! My favorite places to go! I, too, collect postcards and I shared a couple of my Thanksgiving ones on my post today. I hope you have a wonderful day! Twyla
ReplyDeleteThere really IS no place like an antique mall! The postcard is lovely. I'm giving all of the antique stores one more week to get all of their Christmas stuff out there for me. They're very slow about it this year, or maybe I'm too anxious!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!

Swans just say romance don't they. Love antique malls too they just have so much to look at and choose from. Thanks for sharing.

What a delightful post. I love the cherub and his swans. Lovely colors--and of course, those ruby red shoes are always intriguing.
ReplyDeleteThis is another beautiful postcard! I just can't believe how you have such a knack for finding them.
