Alice's Advertising Antiques Ephemera

Alice's Advertising Antiques Ephemera I collect and sell advertising paper from the period 1880-1930. I am most interested in Trade Cards Thanks for checking out my Ephemera site. And so forth.

I have literally tens of thousands of trade cards and other advertising from the late 1800s-early 1900s. Everything here is for sale - and do ask if you are interested in cards from a specific company that you don't see here (or a specific image). Collect thread cards - I have them! Collect patent medicine cards - I have them! Collect shoe catalogs - I have them! If you are interested in anything,

just write SOLD in the comments. And if you have a question, just ask. Payment for items is expected through PayPal. Postage is generally $3.50 for tracked mailings. Thanks so much!
