This is such a sweet picture & one of my favourites!

A calendar from 1936 entitled 'Me & My Dog' by Adelaide Hiebel - the dog's face is just wonderful.

Adelaide Hiebel was the finest and most highly paid, self-styled, female artist of her time. Born in 1879 at New Hope, Wisconsin, she joined the Art Institute of Chicago.

It is a sample calendar so only has the page for January 1936.

The picture measures 24x18cm.

This cute little calendar is from 1959 & depicts a lucky black cat with a crystal ball.

'Happy Days Are Here To Stay'!

There is no hanging tab but there is a small hole so you'd need to add a little bit of ribbon or string to hang it.

The back has an inscription from parents to their children.

The picture measures 23x16cm.

This vintage calendar is from 1951 & depicts a handsome horse looking over the stable door - the horse & stable door is a cut out which is attached over the base giving it a 3D effect.

As this was a sample calendar it doesn't have a full calendar & only shows January 1951.

There is no hanging tab so you'd need to add a little bit of ribbon or string.

The picture measures 20x15cm.

This is a charming set of 5 envelopes which have been handmade from damaged vintage children's books.
They are C6 size & will hold a standard card or quartered A4 sheet of paper.
5 blank address labels are included.
Just moisten the top edge of the flap to seal like a regular envelope.

As these are all different you will receive a random selection, but they are all charmingly vintage in style.
A great way to post your handmade cards or special letters!
