Victorian Ad Valentines Clipart Images ~ Ladies Home Journal 1891

   

This Victorian Advertisement for The Ladies' Home Journal from 1891 is one of my most favorite finds this year! I scanned it from an 1891 newspaper. (I don't recall now which one.. I have dozens..)

I just had to pull this lovely lady out of the ad for you.. she is gorgeous! Perfect for Valentine's art projects or perhaps for wedding pieces now that the season of weddings is almost upon us!

Please remember to play nice.. no adding these images to CD's for resale or selling them the way they are. I work hard to provide them free for you and would like them to remain free for others as well. Feel free to use them in your art and craft and sell your wares!

A link back to this site is always nice too. :)

Thank you! Enjoy!
xoxo~

Even just reading the cover was interesting... Watch out for The Summer Young Man! And it's amazing to think women used to wear so much clothing, when generally the object of today's game seems to be to cover as little skin as possible.

Hi. I just wanted to thank you for all the beautiful images that you share. It's really tough to find free images and I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate what you do. I've done some Spring cleaning over at my Etsy shop and I'm hosting some giveaways on my blog. If you have a minute, please stop in.

Thank you so much for these- I do soooo love old ads and the wording in articles. To the modren ear they are just delightful. And also, the old quip about ' behind every successful man there's a hard-working woman' has obviously bee around a LOT longer than I thought!
