 Vintage Sign of a Woman's Black Boot

A wooden sign shaped like a woman's boot.
This would make an interesting piece of ephemera especially if it were fussy
cut with scissors to the shape of the tall black boot.

White Bear Ad

 White Bear Vintage Ad 

This cool bear can be printed using less ink.
If you don't know how to use masks or the magic wand tools in your photo editing software,
(or it doesn't have those things)
you can still print less black ink by using the paint bucket tool found in most picture editing programs and apps.
Just switch the bucket color to white and tap the black background.
I checked, and the white bear has enough color that it still stands out well with a white background. 

You do not have to have complicated photo editing software, apps, or subscriptions to still
enjoy printing ephemera, junk journal pages, and other fun paper items.

Vintage ad with Dancing Girls

 Five Dancing Girls Vintage Ad 

 This antique / vintage ad was the front piece of a card advertising dog biscuits.
The ad served as a learning card for a musical term.
Since the card was about something of interest to potential customers
(educating their children in the finer points of music);
the back of the card advertising dog biscuits would have a good chance of being noticed.

The musical term for this card is "Decrescendo" - A decrease in loudness of a piece of music.
The memory aid is a dancing line that starts with a woman and decreases in height with girls that are smaller and smaller until the line ends with two little kitties with the cat at the end being the smallest.

Girl with a Cure - Vintage Card

Girl in Blue Dress on Steps 

This is a vintage (or rather antique) card ad for Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil.
It is a winter scene with snow shored up on the veranda or park steps.
The little girl carries a bouquet of flowers and a tin pail of goodies tied with a bow.
She wears a blue hat and dress with a little cape ruffled with a fur edge.

This is great little card image for making ephemera.
Since there are no names or brands to edit out; it will also be useful for gift tags, cards, and other printed items.

Vintage Shop Signs in Shapes of Men and Women's Shoes

 Shop Sign in Shape of a Woman's Shoe

These are two illustrations of wooden shop signs.
The women's shoe appears to be split wood.
Maybe it was a drawing of a real sign rather than a proposal design for a sign to be ordered.
Both men and women's shoes had buttons on the side, and these can be seen in the drawings.

Weather Vane Rooster #1

 Weather Vane Rooster #1 

 Here is another very cool rooster weather vane from the National Gallery of Art.
With a little photo editing his claws can be made to look more natural if you want him standing on a flat surface.
Or; you could place him on something round or just not flat, perhaps a fence post or a mailbox.
