Up for bid is a beautiful vintage birthday postcard.  The artist has provided a wonderful lithographic illustration of an adorable kitten seated in a basket brimming with lovely lilies-of-the-valley. Give yourself a treat and supersize image 1 so you can better see the details. Notice the beautifully printed greeting below. The artistry is exceptional and the colors are still vivid.

Printed in pre-WWI Germany, and published by Raphael Tuck & Sons, this beautifully embossed vintage postcard has been posted and has a 1907 cancellation across the one-cent stamp on the divided back. 

Here's a wonderful 110 year-old antique postcard that will look great in a frame, given as a thoughtful gift, or make a fine addition to your collection. It can be yours but you need to bid now!

 

All items have been safely stored in a smoke-free home.
