tomwiii	posted on January 29, 2008 09:12:41 AM new I was hoping I had stumbled over a pair of Harrison Fishers, but I guess not... NOT artist signed on front, but, rather PUBLISHER signed! "1911 SCHLESHINGER BROS" Can't find it in my ONLY book So, SORRY to be a constant PITA, but does any PC EXPERT recognize the ARTIST? Also, somebody posted a link to DEAD POST OFFICES and I cannot find it anyplace! I think I found a GOOD one (CHESTNUT HILL PHILADELPHIA) and need to check it... THANKS EVERYBODY -- I'm trying to learn as much ASAP, so I don't have to bother the KIND folks here, but...

pmelcher	posted on January 29, 2008 09:14:15 AM new Beautiful ladies, is the first card a photo one?
tomwiii	posted on January 29, 2008 09:19:07 AM new No, they're drawings... From what I've been reading, a number of artists specialized in these drawings of young ladies of the day, and some of these artists are highly collectible... I was hoping these two were by one of those famous PC artists... Poor ole LARD-BUTT keeps muttering in his beauty-slumber: "Pot of gold! Pot of GOLD, Daddy!"

aintrichyet	posted on January 29, 2008 09:21:05 AM new the 2nd one, ... she looks like a gibson girl, doesn't she? [ edited by aintrichyet on Jan 29, 2008 09:22 AM ]
tomwiii	posted on January 29, 2008 09:25:44 AM new Yeah, I considered GIBSON, but, the one GIBSON GIRL pc that I do have was published by the GIBSON ART CO... And CHARLES DANA GIBSON was published by DETRIOT PUBLISHING... But, yer RIGHT, they do remind me of the: GIBSON HEADS series... Oi! I wish I knew MORE...

NEGLUS	posted on January 29, 2008 09:32:52 AM new LOOKS like but isn't. I don't know the artists behind the Schleisinger postcards - maybe Schleisingers are the artists but the stylesare so different. Generically these are "pretty women", "lovely lady", "glamour girl" (I have seen all these terms used ). You might call the second one a "Gibson Girl" with publisher Schleisinger (don't list as artist signed by Gibson or call it an unsigned Gibson.) ------------------------------------- http://stores.ebay.com/Moody-Mommys-Marvelous-Postcards?refid=store [ edited by NEGLUS on Jan 29, 2008 09:54 AM ]

pixiamom	posted on January 29, 2008 10:12:28 AM new DPO link here: http://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp Can you post a pic of the postmark? The postal history site only shows one Chestnut Hill in PA in Somerset county from 1873-1880, which pre-dates the postcard era and wouldn't be in Philadelphia.
tomwiii	posted on January 29, 2008 10:48:28 AM new Here's the CHESTNUT HILL - PHILADELPHIA - PA post mark: AND... I got my first...FAIRY! 1906, can I call her: ART DECO? THANKS! Tom & Ralphie GRAND OPENING of RALPHIE'S EMPORIUM of EARTHLY DELIGHTS~All Vd'ers get 50% DISCOUNT!(except electronics)

tomwiii	posted on January 29, 2008 11:33:12 AM new THANKS! NOW, I'm wondering if that POSTMARK, where it says: "CHESTNUT HILL STATION" is referring to a TROLLEY STOP as opposed to a PO? GRAND OPENING of RALPHIE'S EMPORIUM of EARTHLY DELIGHTS~All Vd'ers get 50% DISCOUNT!(except electronics)
