Pretty Decorated Postcard
I love all the decorative efforts on the Maude Fealy postcards, and many others, as well. Maybe this heightened the value of the cards? Would people buy the same pose, presented in different way? I’m always pretty excited when I run across a new one. Look at those eyes. I don’t know if her eyes are really blue, but I think so.
The Reds
Many times, postcard makers would have sections of a postcard hand colored. They don’t really seem to make the photos more life like, but the addition of color must have been serendipitous in the pre-color days. Some of them I really like, but in others I find the colors a maddening distraction. As if Maude wasn’t beautiful enough!!!
