[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 953462, member: 51"]So, hard to say whether I'll recoup my $12, but maybe yes. My sense is that former owner held on to all of these, some in sort of a album setting, and the not impossible (as there are some empty spots in the album) that thrift had someone pull out the really good ones so this is what is left. Here is the group: Most, but not all, are French. These first ones have sort of a three-dimensional feature where there is a door you can open, the moon, the suitcase, the tent flap, etc. but not exactly sure how that works. There is a little metal tab, then behind the feature accordion like paper, but that isn't connected to the top, maybe over time the glue failed? Is there a name for these kind that have sort of a 3D feature? [ATTACH=full]203841[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]203842[/ATTACH] A few U.S. Christmas ones stamped on the back 1909-1910: [ATTACH=full]203843[/ATTACH] some Russian that look more vintage: [ATTACH=full]203844[/ATTACH] A single Italian one I quite like, a print of course, artist's signature seems to be printed on the bottom. [ATTACH=full]203845[/ATTACH] And this one is kind of cool: [ATTACH=full]203850[/ATTACH] LOVE this guy -- a squeaker, but has the damage in the corner: [ATTACH=full]203846[/ATTACH] Then all the rest.... all of these pages are two-sided so this many on the back as well.
