Description: White & Polar Bear Attached 2 Antique Postcards 1900s. For Collectors. Value This is a very nice lot of 2 NOVELTY POSTCARDS that are RARE, UNIQUE and DESIRABLE. These postcards are ANTIQUE from the early 1900s. These are NOVELTY POSTCARDS because they have bears attached to the postcard. These had to be made by hand and it would take a multi-step process; first publish the postcard, and then add the bear. These are rare and unique and will keep their value. These are collector items. They were probably made in Germany area during the early 1900s. Overall, a nice selection of antique novelty postcards! These are collector items because of their age and desirability. One of the postcards shows a WHITE BEAR in the woods. The back is a pen-and-ink type of design. The bear is made out of CLOTH and attached. This was published by The Rose Company, Philadelphia, PA, and it has a written date of 1908. The other postcard has a POLAR BEAR attached and in the background are rocks and water. The polar bear is made out of fuzzy cloth / fur. This was canceled in 1907. It has an ARTIST SIGNATURE: Rob Raminerdi. The postcards are POSTED. The postcards would have been made in the 1906-1907 era. They have divided backs. They have an additional paper on the back to hide how they were attached. These are BETTER POSTCARD and good for a collector. The postcards will keep their value! They are sleeved and in good condition. However, please expect some creases, cuts, stains and edge wear due to their age. The photos show the postcards and the backs. The postcards are shipped in a sturdy envelope.
