An intriguing photograph and photo postcard set of the same image, this striking portrait of a family standing in a woodland setting was taken in Germany in the early 1900s.

The photograph postcard was sent to Franz Jasick residing in Berlin, Germany. The postcard has a 2 mark Deutsches Reich stamp canceled on 22 - 10 - 0?. This stamp first came into circulation in 1902. Photograph postcard has an undivided back, and is marked "O.R.G.M 141228" & C.E. & C. Reg." The postcard appears to be signed on the front with two signatures, possibly those of the man and woman in the photograph. The address is handwritten in beautiful calligraphy.

The sepia photograph and photograph postcard each have beautiful border details. The photograph and postcard show wear. The postcard has some soiling.


I love old photographs. When I see them at estate and garage sales, I wonder how family members can let go of such interesting and revealing family artifacts.

According to The New York Times, "The Peeps at Many Lands Series is an old and valued friend of young people whose parents have the discrimination to provide for them attractive food for the assuagement of that desire to know about "some place else" that is inherent in all vigorous young minds. " New York Times, July 3, 1921

This fine American edition of the Peeps at Many Lands England and Wales has its original dust jacket illustrated with a girl and boy riding a magic carpet through the sky. The book contains sixteen beautiful color illustrations of English and Welsh landscapes.

The dust jacket is worn with chips, tears, and paper loss at the corners and at the top and base of the spine, as well as soiling. But, the dust jacket has served to beautifully preserve the decorative red cloth cover and paste-down illustration of an English cottage and garden. Pages show light browning from age but are supple. Pages are clean. Binding is tight.
