Daily Vintage - Victorian Trade Card, Woman Balancing on Bubble

Today's Daily Vintage is this charming Victorian trade card featuring a woman - perhaps a circus performer - balancing on a giant bubble.  This card is TINY (2.5" x .075").  I purchased it at an ephemera show, and was told that it dates 1870's to 1880's.  I think it would look great in a small frame.  I have framed small pictures like this with vintage paper or vintage-look paper (from your favorite craft supply or art supply store) as a background.    This Victorian card is at Birdhouse Books: Victorian Trade Card, Woman Balancing on Bubbles.

Gordon Fraser Victorian Christmas Gift Tags



I love Gordon Fraser stationery, and just had to share these lovely Christmas tags.  They are imported from England, and are all Victorian reproductions.  They are so unique, and would be the perfect Christmas trim on a special gift!   I have a number of new packages of these lovely tags in my store:  Gordon Fraser Christmas tags at Birdhouse Books
