Description: 5 New Years Antique Postcards, Printed in Germany 1900s. EMB, Gold Trim w Value This is a nice selection of 5 NEW YEARS POSTCARDS that are ANTIQUE from the early 1900s and were "Printed in Germany". They have the classic New Years motifs such as holly and berries, wintery snow rural scenes, flowers, etc. These are EMBOSSED and have GOLD / SILVER TRIM. They are attractive postcards with good detail that makes them pleasing to look at. One postcard shows a couple standing outside of a farm house in the snow. It has green four leaf clovers all around and a pink ribbon. There is another postcard with a four leaf clover and horseshoes in the background design. There is a postcard with silver trim, showing pink roses with a snowy border around them. One shows a snowy scene with a large tree in the middle, and it appears to be sunset. This has strong gold trim around the picture. The other postcard has two red potted roses and a snowy scene in the middle. There is holly and berries as a border around the picture. These were made during the "Golden Age of Antique Postcards" (1908-1915 era). Overall, a nice selection of New Years antique postcards! These are collector items because of their age, being "Printed in Germany", and their appeal to antique postcard collectors.
