When presented on Greeting Cards, these images are prepared as tipped-in plates - in homage to the hand-crafted
approach typical of prestige illustrated publications produced in the early decades of the 20th Century.
Hand-finishing is used to replicate the visual appearance of a tipped-in plate and the images are presented on
Ivory card stock (in the case of colour illustrations) or White card stock (in the case of monotone illustrations)
with an accompanying envelope. We have left the cards blank so that you may write your own personal
message.
Should you wish to order a Reproduction Print of one or more of these images, we have provided some
options below. Of course, should you wish to discuss some customised options, we welcome your contact
on any matter through ThePeople@SpiritoftheAges.com.
In the meantime, enjoy perusing these wonderful images from Jessie M King.
