cats and balloons


these 1930s kitties don't really look too thrilled to be sending out birthday wishes
so  I was thrilled to get this hand made postcard from Finland this week

  1. Somewhere (but, where?) I have a postcard like these vintage ones that was sent to my mother in the early 1920's - it was actually a birthday card from her grandmother. These days, greetings cards (especially ones emblazoned with 'Happy Birthday'!) tend to come with envelopes! I wonder if the postman read the greeting....? ;-p

  7. That's funny - the cats do look remarkably ... not unhappy exactly, but a little glum.

  8. Happy birthday. Your posts are very interesting. Stamps and postcards are an art form that is part of our cultural history.
