Antique Japanese Postcards

Thursday, August 25, 2011
These antique postcards from Japan really charmed me when I first came upon them a little while ago, I have had them sitting in my folder to revisit again; here they are to share with you. Aren't they adorable?



Betty Boop 1937


Betty Boop, Mickey and Minnie 1936

Mickey c. 1920-40s



New Year's Card 1911



Children's Expo 1906




Norakuro c. 1930s


Dancing Cats 1920- 1940s


These were found in a recent book by collector Hiroki Hayashi entitled
"Antique Cute Post Cards in Japan" (Nippon no kawaii ehagaki).
