Vintage Ephemera for Sale

I've said for a long time that I would do this "someday" -- and the day has come. I have to make room for finished pieces of my artwork, and that means letting go of my collected pieces of vintage ephemera. These are original cabinet cards, snapshots, greeting cards, ad cards, etc. None of the ephemera is a reproduction except for the pre-1923 magazine pages, most of which feature ads, images and text.

Fifteen (15) pieces of ephemera for $5.00 -- with a minimum order of $20; plus $5 for postage. To phrase it differently: For $25 total, you get 60 pieces of vintage ephemera.

For the time being -- before supplies run low -- you can specify categories: cabinet cards, snapshots, magazine pages, women, men, children, romance, greeting cards & ad-cards, and documents (some handwritten, some typed on manual typewriters.)

You can make the purchase via Pay Pal, using the "Buy Now" button below.

Thanks,

Cecilia

Queen Ann Collection added to CD

I've added several new imagery collections to my CD Oldendaze--Vol II & Beyond, bringing the total of individual images to more than 500. You can see the contents of the entire CD by scrolling to the bottom of this blog page; but I also want to show the newest inclusion here in this post, where you can click to enlarge the image.

In the lower right, the text reads, "Great Spirit, give to me / A heaven not so large as yours, / But large enough for me." (Emily Dickinson)

clipart CD "Oldendaze Vol. 2" & Somerset Digital Studio

A month's passed since my last post, because we've been having windows and doors replaced in the house, garage and back porch. (We still have a back porch, instead of a deck. Here in this suburban development, my husband and I live in a small "island" -- with our neighbors on the right and on the left, we comprise a three-houses-in-a-row unit wherein live couples over 60. All around us are under-60's -- who have decks. We over-60's have screened-in back porches. It's a generations thing!)

Yesterday I received my free copy of Somerset Digital Studio (Autumn 2009 issue.) Page 108 shows my digital art entitled Heart in Hand. The elements that I used in creating this collage are among the 19 color-coordinated digital kits included in my $10 CD, Oldendaze Vol. 2, available by using the Pay Pay "Buy Now" button at the end of this post. $10 includes postage. In addition to the 19 digital kits, the CD contains a large array of JPG images, all of which can be seen by scrolling to the bottom of this blog page. These 425-plus images are 300 dpi, for high-quality, fine-detail resolution; they can be printed onto plain or pre-printed papers, or onto transparencies sold in office supply stores. The CD images are copyright 2009 Cecilia Swatton with all rights reserved, so they can be used only for personal artwork and cannot be re-sold unless I'm contacted and grant permission, which I will do in certain instances.

I have new photos of my two oldest grandchildren, taken when we went out to dinner with them a couple nights ago. Can't upload them yet because my C drive has only 3% of empty space left!!! But my new (and third) external drive is on its way, thanks to Amazon.com.

I'm reading Passing Strange, a fascinating true story and a real eye-opener. Has anyone else read it?

Enjoy your weekend, everyone!
