Description: SET 6 Patriotic Antique Postcards Washington. EMB.Gold. Artist: Clapsaddle This is a very nice SET of 6 PATRIOTIC antique postcards from the very early 1900s. They were published for PRESIDENT'S DAY for the remembrance of GEORGE WASHINGTON'S birthday. They show lovely drawn children, they have portraits of Washington as the General and as President, and one shows him sitting on his white horse. The designs are bright and colorful, and they have a lot of RED, WHITE, and BLUE drawn in these postcards. The postcards are nicely EMBOSSED and they have GOLD TRIM in the design. They were published by International Art Publishing Co., a well respected and sought after publisher. These postcards are part of Series #51646. Also, these postcards were drawn by Ellen Clapsaddle (unsigned), a well known artist whose material is sought after by collectors. This is rare to have so many of these postcards in one lot, and they would please all collectors. These type of President's Day antique postcards are sought after by collectors. They have nice colors and good themes. These are collector items because of their age, being drawn by Clapsaddle, being nicely embossed with gold trim, and their overall appeal to those collecting Washington and Patriotic antique postcards. The postcards are all UNPOSTED (3) and POSTED (3) with cancel dates of 1909-10. Note one has their stamp removed, but it does not impact the front. They have DIVIDED backs, and these were "Printed in Germany". 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. The postcards are shipped in a sturdy envelope.
