Both cards rich in Irish symbolism, and mailed in 1909. In very good condition, though the backs are a bit dark from age. Item 485802◊ c1909 Two (2) Embossed & Gilt, St. Patrick’s Day Postcards with Lots of Symbolism Very rare and fascinating “1909 Two (2) Embossed & Gilt, St. Patrick’s Day Postcards with Lots of Symbolism.” They both measure approx. 5-1/2” by 3-1/2” and are formatted like a Photo Postcard with a divided back. Card #1 shows a collection of elements, typically Irish: a Celtic harp completely gold-gilt. Below on the left is printed the phrase “Erin Go Bragh.” That is an anglicization of a Gaelic phrase, which literally means “Ireland till the end of time.” The phrase was believed to have first been used during the Irish Rebellion of 1798. Now-a-days it is generally translated as “Ireland Forever.” ON the right On the bottom right are shamrock leaves each with one word that together says “Dear Irish Melodies.” and finally there is a banner across the harp with a poem printed on it. It is all so all very symbolic. This card was mailed to Mrs. J. H Dunning in “the City.” It was post marked Chicago, IL, so we assume that was the “city.”Card #2 shows a heart-shaped wreath of shamrocks, with the words, “The Land of St. Patrick.” Below that is a map of Ireland. Obviously this make is from 1909 or earlier, before Ireland split into the Irish Republic and Northern Ireland. The publishers name is written at the bottom of the card. If you put on 3 pair of glasses you might be able to read it. This card was mailed to Miss Myrtle Skinner in South Haven, Michigan. The card is a bit difficult to read because it has some water damage … perhaps due to rain. Too bad the ball point pen wasn’t invented yet. Both of these cards are lovely and in goo to very good condition. Most of the corners are mildly bumped or creased, but the cards are sound. Please see all 4 of the photos above to confirm the contents and condition of these cards. Lovely and historical, these “1909 Two (2) Embossed & Gilt, St. Patrick’s Day Postcards with Lots of Symbolism”, are perfect for the upcoming holiday of St. Patrick’s Day. ————————– Be sure to check out our other listings for a number of other Holiday cards and postcards, offered this week and in coming weeks by PENchantiques on eBay. 092624-Ns OUR POLICIES COMMUNICATION: We want you to be happy with your transaction, and GOOD COMMUNICATION is the key to YOUR HAPPINESS.
