Victorian Puzzle Card Ephemera Sheets
These printable ephemera sheets are made up of Victorian trade cards with little puzzles on them. Victorian trade cards were a form of collectible advertising popular in the late 1800s. Unfortunately, the solutions to these puzzles were on the backs of the cards, which I couldn’t locate, so you’ll have no way to check your answers. I think maybe the instructions were on the back too because I have no idea where to begin solving these. However, they look really cool in a mixed media collage with their bright colors, and that’s really what’s important here, isn’t it?
Scroll down and you’ll find a sheet of approximately 2.5” x 4.25” images and a sheet of 1.5” x 2.5” images.
