Original Handwritten Greeting Card Manuscript Proofs, Slogans and Salutations, Sentiments, Poems, Poetry, Prose , ect. Written for Hallmark, Keating, Rust Craft, and greeting Card Companies from 1949-1962. This incredible album is mind bogglilng as it has handwritten proofs of original presentations for future greeting cards. There are birthday cards with catchy phrases, heart felt sentiments, poems, salutations, best wishes, remembrances, compliments, love, humor, regrets, ect. I believe these are all the creations of one man or woman as they have been written over a period of years. Next to different cards will be an entry 32 to Rust Craft, 15 to Hallmark, and 22 to Keating Greeting Cards which leads me to believe that this is the way the author supported him or herself from 1949-1962. One sample of a Convalescence Card which is really cute and funny: Not Hitting on all eight I hear - Got some trouble with your gear? Or is your chassis out of time? - Or is your engine full of grime? What ever's got you on the rack - Here's hoping that you'll SOON be back Mothers Day " I'm filled with thankfulness each day - and find mere words can never say - How much I love you, Mother dear, You're more to me eacyh passing year You cared for me and were so wise and now today my future lies in paths where you have helped to lead - Your love has filled my every need. So all I am or hope to be is due to Mother's guiding me" These are merely a couple of samples of the more than 200 original writings. There are well over 200 different greeting card handwritten proofs, on over 65 pages in a book that measures 14 x 9 inches, and is a very exciting and worthy acquisition indeed.

Hardbound volune in good condition, internally fresh and tight Tucked away inside the pages are several typed future cards. A wonderful addition to anyones collection or library.
