How could you not think "Happy Thoughts" looking at this sweet antique postcard? Kittens, a perennially favorite motif, as appealing today as they were in 1910. Add these cool 100-year old cats to your collection.

In it's day, the postcard was the Twitter of it's time. A revolutionary idea that cropped up in several world locations in the mid-1800s, the concept of the postcard bears a remarkable similarity to our contemporary Twitter. Emanuel Herrmann, considered the person who championed the use of what was to become a popular method of communication, proposed his postcard idea to the Austrian postal service in 1869 through an article in the Neue Freie Presse, the leading Austrian newspaper (remember those?). These small plain cards without pictures or adornments were to have a 20-word limit including address and the sender's signature.

In 1861, U.S.A. postal service began allowing the posting of cards weighing an ounce or less for the cost of 1 cent within a 1000 mile delivery zone.

Postmarked on January 3, 1910 at 7 p.m. in Albion, Maine, this postcard was sent to Miss Eva Copeland from Ellen who wrote a note in pencil. The card is in excellent vintage condition. One corner is peeling up slightly.

With comic book captions, Aunt Jenny reveals her favorite recipes in this 1930s cookbook advertising pamphlet for Spry vegetable shortening.

Host and narrator of the long-running radio show, Aunt Jenny’s Real Life Stories (1937 -1956), Aunt Jenny (Edith Spencer) told the tales of the little town of Littleton with soap opera drama along with her cooking and baking recipes.

I don't think the pamphlet was intentionally written to be funny, but by today's standards, its an absolute hoot.

Tiny pink plastic scottie dog, this sweet miniature terrier charm was in a vintage "grab bag" at an estate sale with items mostly from the 1950s & 1960s.

I have no idea where he came from, but he sure is tiny and he sure is cute. He could be from a piece of jewelry, or he may be a game piece. He may be a button, or he could be from a toy.

He is molded from hard plastic, you can see the mold lines, and has a hole going through him. He is in very good condition. He can easily be hung on a chain or silk cord and worn as a charm.

Antique copper letterpress printer's block, this engraved photograph portrait of a man has a haunting look. The man's eyes seem to stare right at you.

The copperplate portrait is mounted on a wood block. The plate is very old, and shows wear. There is a scratch just below the mid-point of the portrait. Fortunately, it doesn't effect the fellow's face.

Someone wrote in script with pencil along one side of the wooden block. I can't make out what it says. Perhaps it's the gentleman's name? The number "1" in a circle is written on the opposite side.

The copper has a wonderful patina.
