This book is a series of vintage postcards, four postcards per page. It's great for looking through, but also a great for sending out Christmas cards at a lower cost (postcard stamps). The book easy easy to break apart - just take out the staples holding it together and tear away at the perforated edges! I have gotten more compliments this year than any other on how wonderful my Christmas cards were. The old-fashioned charm and warm sentiments in the cards were perfect.

I knew they were postcards before I ordered -- I trade postcards with a lot of people so I was looking for some good seasonal cards. But these are just beyond tacky -- I suppose I should have known from the low price. The high gloss finish doesn't fit at all with the antique images printed on the cards. The cardstock isn't as heavy as I like my postcards to be, but it's passable. Also, the perforated edges look really bad when you separate the cards. Don't even think about getting these unless you have a good paper cutter to clean up the edges.

These are going in the recyle bin, I think. Look elsewhere.

I knew these were postcards when I bought them a few years ago and that's exactly what I needed for my hand-made cards. The back page describes them as so, as does an excerpt. I used black photo corners on them and attached them to dark red card stock. Then I wrapped a gold metallic pipe cleaner around the fold and twisted both ends. I rubber stamped and embossed a Merry Christmas greeting inside it. They turned out beautifully and no two were alike. I received many compliments on my Victorian Christmas cards.

These are nice Christmas postcards. It is true that they are quite glossy. The images are great, everyone loved them, and I saved on postage costs and the waste of the envelope. I would buy them again.

I only wish I had gotten more! Not only is having post cards a money saver on postage, but these unique cards are just that - unique! I sent them to my friends and they flipped over them! I saved some for myself just to have. But these recreated early 1900s post cards are sure to put a smile on anyone's face.

I got these Christmas postcards and was very pleased. First of all they arrived at my home quickly. Second, and most importantly, the postcards were very beautiful. Anyone who likes vintage pictures will love these. Also, in this economy sending postcards is less expensive for postage. Makes this deal doubly good. I got a lot of good comments on the postcards I sent out. Even if you dont want to send postcards out these are nice to just have to keep and look at.
I give it a 5-star.

I like the postcards. I had a difficult time taking them out without messing up the other ones.

I wish I had thought about post cards before. They were all cute and enabled me to stay in touch with old friends without the expense of cards. Postage was a little cheeper too.

These are exactly what i was looking for to create custom Christmas cards this year! They are very detailed and super cute! A bit more glossier than i wanted, but they will be great!!

I was very pleased with the product and with the service. The cards arrived in a couple days, well-packaged. Very good transaction.
