About this product
This is an original, embossed, divided back postcard from 1913, featuring an airbrush design of doves, a gilt wheelbarrow, and roses. Manufactured in Germany by G G & Co, it measures a standard 5.5 x 3.5 inches and has already been posted. The postcard showcases themes of animals, art, flowers, greetings, and transportation, making it a unique piece of vintage ephemera for collectors or as a historical memento.
Our take
As a collector of vintage postcards, this 1913 piece is quite appealing. The airbrush design of doves, roses, and a gilt wheelbarrow is charming and characteristic of the era. I particularly like that it's an original, embossed, and divided back card, all features that add to its historical value. The fact that it's already been posted gives it an extra layer of history and character. At a price of $4.95, it feels like a reasonable acquisition for an original piece over a century old. Its German origin and specific manufacturer add to its authenticity.
