Making a copy of an old photograph is great for craft projects, card making and scrapbooking. Scan photos from old RPPC postcards.
This postcard of a family photo would make a great card.
Judy's Postcards Plus
In this blog I wish to share postcards from my collection with others, as there are many different catagories of postcards. I also will share what I am currently selling on Ebay. I like selling, buying and trading postcards. The Plus in the title is for the handcraft items I make and collect. Also for all the ephemera I collect.

Dog Grooming, Shopping and enjoying the goodies at home.
Yesterday was Gardening Day, today was Shopping Day. First my husband and I dropped off Joey at PetSmart for his bath. How can I shop first without stopping at the Credit Union, on to Costco for a few items, then to Target for pet supplies. Then shopping for me...3 magazines from Barnes and Nobles, Somerset Life, Mary Jane's Farm and ShopSmart. Right across the street was Hobby Lobby where I found the sale table and bought a small blank scrapbook and some blank cards and envelopes ready to decorate.
While we were eating at Sonic I got the call that Joey was ready. Joey needed a walk so he got his exercise after I went to Starbucks and at last to an antique mall. There were some boxes of postcards but nothing good to sell on eBay. The best part about shopping is relaxing at home going through your bag of goodies.

Improved Perforated Bellodonna Plaster - Trade Card Advertisement
This is a trade card for Improved Perforated Bellodonna Plaster. It is the cures for many illnesses. The front of the card has a charming illustration of 3 children, 2 girls and a boy. Love the girls bonnets, aprons and Mary Jane style of shoes.
Mitchell was born in 1837 and is the PIONEER OF PLASTER
Made at Novelty Plaster Works in Lowell, Mass at 25 cents and sold at drug stores everywhere. The bust of the man is of Mitchell and photo was done in 1864. I would guess this trade card is from 1870 to 1890.
