Hello Ducklings! First of all, I apologize for not posting on Friday. Time ran away with me. And secondly, I am assuming your weekends were full of perfectly aged wheels of brie (or your cheese of choice) and crumbly crackers served atop white, frilly doilies. Non? Well, I hope you all had fun, regardless!
Anyway, here I am this morning looking at one of my latest infatuation....vintage playing cards. I was inspired to do so because two weeks ago I was over at the Hell's Kitchen Flea Market and my interest was piqued by a nudie deck at one of the tables. Unfortunately, there were a bunch of cards missing, and, worse, it was over-priced, as things in HK Flea Market always are. But, it got me to thinking.
Actually, it's possible to buy single cards, without their sets, for the low, low price of between $2 and $10 a pair. I can't think of a better way to create a collage...with bits of ephemera, each one a work of art in and of itself. Generally, I am not a collector. But...well...maybe it's time to become one.
