A Favorite Santa Postcard

Saturday December 12, 2009

This is one of the most recent additions to my Santa Postcard Collection and it became a fast favorite.

Music for the Eyes: Vintage Sheet Music

Saturday December 12, 2009

Antique sheet music offers collectors an affordable yet beautifully decorative option when seeking something new and interesting to collect. Even though I don't avidly seek this type of ephemera for my own collection, I do have a few pieces I can't bear to part with like the "Pretty Kitty Kelly" piece from the 1930s shown here. She was just too pretty in her Christmas finery not to take home for the holidays. If you'd like to learn more about the history and pricing of these unique paper collectibles, take a look at
