EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the world of early 20th century childhood with this charming and intriguing vintage postcard featuring Little Miss America. Dated back to 1921, this postcard is a delightful relic of a bygone era. The postcard is not an advertisement for a company, but rather an artistic creation by the talented Margaret Banks. The postcard is designed as a cut-out activity for children. The image of Little Miss America, a cheerful and well-dressed young girl, is printed on one side of the card. On the reverse side, there are separate cut-out sections for various garments, including a dress, petticoat, hat, and shoes. The child could cut out these pieces and fit them onto the body of the doll character, allowing them to engage in a fun and creative activity. The intricate details of the doll's clothing and the delicate shading on her face and hands reveal the skill and care that went into creating this postcard. The use of soft pastel colors adds to the overall charm and appeal. The postcard also features a border adorned with stars and stripes, reflecting the patriotic spirit of the time. This postcard is a wonderful reminder of the simple joys of childhood and the creativity that was fostered through such activities. It also offers a glimpse into the fashion trends and cultural norms of the early 1920s. A true treasure for collectors of vintage postcards, ephemera, and Americana.
