Description: 3 Greetings Antique Novelty Silk Texture Postcards.1900s. EMB, Gold Trim. This is a nice lot of 3 NOVELTY postcards that are UNIQUE and DESIRABLE. These postcards are ANTIQUE from the early 1900s. These are NOVELTY postcards because they have SILK in the picture design of the postcard. This type of silk texture was not used too often, because it was an extra step and it cost more to manufacture. These are postcards that will keep their value. These are Novelty GREETINGS postcards with two saying "Best Wishes". There is one postcard that shows a beautiful wicker basket full of colorful flowers, and the pink flower in the front is with silk. Another postcard shows a nice rural scene with homes and a church and a lake, with mountains in the background. Above the rural scene are roses and a blueish design border. The pink rose has silk. The last postcard shows a gold trim four leaf clover in the middle, with bouquet of flowers on either side. The red flowers on both sides are with silk. This postcard has a nice bluish and yellow border. These are colorful, interesting and attractive antique Novelty postcards that capture the classic look that was used back in the early 1900s. These are unique antique postcards that will keep their value. Overall, a nice selection of antique novelty postcards that are attractively designed! These are collector items because of their age and how they were made. Silk postcards are not often seen, and to find them in a group like this is appealing to collectors. The postcards are POSTED with cancel dates of 1907-1908. The postcards were "Printed In Germany" during the "Golden Age of Postcards" (1908-1915). Postcards from Germany are of interest to collectors. They are EMBOSSED and one has an UNDIVIDED back. They are from different publishers. These are BETTER POSTCARDS and are good for a collector or dealer. They will keep their value. Often these postcards are sold as individual items for many dollars each. They are sleeved and in good condition. However, please expect some creases, stains and edge wear due to their age. The photos show the postcards and their backs.
