Pennsylvania Dutch Note Cards Set

A Collection of Pennsylvania Dutch Note Cards with little sketches and bits of folklore from the Dutch Country. These cards were printed by Yorkraft in York, Pennsylvania in the mid-1900s. Yorkraft produced a variety of gift card sets, signs and other novelty items.

This set of notecards is set 36, and originally contained 16 cards and envelopes. Unfortunately, one of the cards and envelopes is missing (I wonder who the lucky recipient was?!) so it now contains 15.

The graphics on the cards are beautiful sketches showing different scenes from the Dutch country including baking pie, churning butter, and cooking over an open-fire. There are write-ups on the back of each note card describing the scene that is depicted in the sketch.

The cards are in good condition, with a little wear on the box and some age-related discoloration on the envelopes.

These are a fun collector's item and would make a neat display item or discussion piece for anyone interested in the history of the Pennsylvania Dutch country.
