Jurgensen This book contains my eclectic collection of postcards that I have found in antique malls, quaint boutiques and open air markets in my travels throughout the world. These Victorian and Edwardian images caught my attention and captured my imagination because as a seamstress and milliner, the first thing I noticed were their beautifully detailed ... more »clothing, hats and jewelry. I used them as inspirations for my own designs. Upon further study I have learned that these beautiful women were the celebrities of their day: opera singers, stage actresses and comedic burlesque performers. These cards were created as promotional items and sold at performances and in general stores and were highly sought after by collectors in the past and even to this day. I hope you enjoy browsing these pages and gazing upon their beautiful faces and finery. Gazing upon these reflections of the past. This book is the first in the series.« less
