Currently Inspired: Vintage Postcards

These days most messages are sent either by email or through a text message. Even though images can be attached, opening an email still feels cold. Sorting through our collection of vintage postcards, it's amazing to see how engaging each one is. Every card has such a distinct image that tells a unique story even without a message on its backside. The very act of taking time to handwrite a message has the potential to say more than the message itself. Most people don't have the luxury of time to write to each other by hand, however, if you've ever received a letter from a loved one in the mail, you know how special it is.



The colors on each postcard are so vibrant and classic and are clearly indicative of another time. Looking at each image, we can't help but imagine what kind of adventures people were writing to each other about.



Our postcards have reminded us not only of fond memories before our time, but the effort we used to put into communication as well.


Make someone feel special and send a hand-written message today! Available at The Paris Market.
