Vintage Graphic: Breakfast Cocoa

Almost as good as having the tin in your hands, is having a print of the original ad. From a century ago, here is a vivid advertisement for breakfast cocoa. I wonder how that would have differed from lunch cocoa, or dinner cocoa? Enjoy - Judy

 

Vintage Graphic: 1909 Cocoa Advertisement

Here's a wonderful century-old ad for cocoa. I've included the untouched original, plus the "belle chocolatier" with her tray of hot chocolate. They just don't make them like this anymore; that's why I spend so much time happily digging through old books, Enjoy using this in your crafting! - Judy

Vintage Oriental Graphic: Beautiful Geisha #2

Here's another geisha with a musical instrument; this time strings. She would be beautiful on a greeting card, or perhaps printed on transparent film, and placed on a lighted glass block. How about a paper luminary? The possibilities are endless! - Judy

Vintage Oriental Graphic: Beautiful Geisha #1

I have discovered a set of prints of lovely geishas - - -this one is wearing a richly-colored kimono, and holding a flute. As with all the graphics I offer here, they are copyright-free. I will bring you the others as I finish them; each one takes meticulous work to separate it from its background, then isolate the segments to tint them. I hope you like the results.

New Vintage Image: Silhouette Lady

My first vintage silhouette! I was quite excited to find it, and hope to discover more in my treasure hunts.

Use your imagination and have fun! - Judy
