Mosaics, Tiles & Tapestries

It is only because I have so few of them that I combine Mosaics, Tiles & Tapestries.

Good to have a goal in life, eh?

Welcome to the thread, Cursus.

kehess, Greetings, and welcome to the topic.

Re Ceresota: How interesting that, in 1906, a company - even a company that was awfully well-known in its markets - would choose brand-building image-building feelings-before-product advertising that does not even say what its product is or does. I thought that brand-image-only advertising was, you know, more recent.

Note to self: look at more old advertising postcards.
