10 Vintage Posted Envelopes - 1930's - 60's

10 Authentic Vintage Posted Envelopes – 1930s–1960s

These are the real thing—not reproductions made to look old.

Each pack includes 10 authentic, previously mailed vintage envelopes dating from the 1930s through the 1960s, complete with the wonderful details that only genuine old mail can have: handwritten addresses, postmarks, vintage stamps, faded ink, beautiful typography and naturally aged paper.

These envelopes came from the collection of a stamp collector whose friends and family mailed correspondence to him from their travels, including pieces sent during the WWII era. I love knowing that these little pieces of paper actually traveled through the mail and had a life before finding their way into our creative projects.

Every set is different, and that's part of what makes them so special.

Perfect for:

• Junk journals
• Vintage and travel journals
• Collage and mixed media
• Pockets and tuck spots
• Journal pages
• Tags and clusters
• Altered books
• Using the stamps, postmarks and handwriting as focal points

Use the envelopes whole, tuck something inside them, or carefully take them apart to use all of those beautiful aged surfaces in your projects.

Each pack contains 10 vintage posted envelopes.

Because these are authentic vintage pieces, expect variations in color, size, handwriting, stamps and condition. Some may have creases, small tears, discoloration, opened edges or other signs of their age and travels.

Those perfectly imperfect details are exactly what make each one unique.
