ANTIQUE WHITNEY EASTER CARDS, RARE EMBOSSED Two Ducks from Meeting, EXC Unused +

Description: Offered here is a rare early 20th c. Easter Greeting card, Whitney Made, from Worcester MA. The semi-divided card has no writing and was never mailed. It is in Very Good to Excellent condition. Colors are bright and surface retains original gloss. Card is well-centered. Duck figures are lightly embossed and reverse side of card retains emboss impressions. The "stippling" effect in the images are a result of the scanning process I used. The original cards DO NOT have any "dot" "pixilation" at all. Corners and some edges are slightly bumped. Bottom left corner of card has a slight crease. Reverse side of card is clean with no writing or marking. Slight irregular water stain on lower right corner of reverse. George C. Whitney (1842-1915) founded the Whitney Made company in Worcester, MA and was an early producer of post cards and other cards. This Easter card is a very rare and marvelous example of very early USA greeting card production. This card is being offered along with a water-damaged embossed Easter Greeting card of a young girl holding hands with the Easter Bunny as they look at an Easter Basket of colored eggs. This card is strongly embossed, but has the water-damage problem on the top right corner front & rear. The lower right corner is chipped. The upper left corner has slight spotting. The lower right corner has light staining. Because this beautiful card has some distractions, the overall price for the two cards is substantially discounted, and will be mailed with FREE SHIPPING. Additionally, I offer a discount for multiple card purchases: 15% for 2 items, 20% for 3, & 25% for 4 or more vintage/antique post cards. Cards will be mailed in an ebay Standard Envelope. Thanks for looking and Happy Easter!
