Lot #59: Vintage Red Scrapbook Approx 69 Mid-Century Get Well Cards 1940s-60s

This is a vintage red hardbound scrapbook titled "Scrap Book" in gold script lettering, filled with approximately 69 mid-20th century get-well, hospital, and recovery greeting cards. The cards primarily date from the 1940s through the 1960s and feature classic humorous cartoon animals, floral designs, religious themes, and playful illustrations typical of the era. The album measures approximately standard scrapbook size and is bound with a decorative string and gold accent lines with a diamond motif on the cover. The interior pages are filled with carefully mounted original greeting cards expressing wishes for recovery, hospital visits, and cheerful recovery messages. Many cards include popular mid-century motifs such as anthropomorphic animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, monkeys, birds), floral bouquets, and light-hearted humor. Condition notes (please review all photographs carefully): - The red cover shows expected age-related wear including surface scuffs, light scratches, and some small marks or spots. - Interior pages exhibit natural yellowing and aging of the paper stock consistent with a mid-century scrapbook. Some pages show minor stains, water spots, or discoloration. - Individual cards generally remain in good collectible condition with vibrant colors and clear illustrations; some may show light edge wear, minor creases, or age toning as typical for vintage paper ephemera of this period. - The binding and pages appear intact and the album remains usable as a display or reference collection of vintage get-well cards. - No modern cards or recent additions are present; this is an authentic period collection. vintage scrapbook, get well cards, mid century greeting cards, 1950s hospital cards, estate lot ephemera, cartoon animal cards, floral get well, red scrap book, vintage paper collectibles Dimensions: 12x13 Pickup category timeslot {A}
