Vintage Mugs at CafePress
My very first online stores were on CafePress. I don't really maintain them anymore, but aparently these Vintage Holiday Card Mugs have taken off again via Amazon! Their story: after seeing at these images, I realized that there were distinct "collections" with some of them, usually in sets of four, which was perfect for a design on mugs, so mugs they became! Now I present them here as a complete mug collection for you to browse and order directly through the source. Click on an image to shop that style. I wish I could add them to my other stores, but alas - the originals are long gone. Available for Halloween (4 designs), Thanksgiving (3 designs), and Christmas (7 designs)! Enjoy!
Vintage Halloween Jack O'Lanterns
Four spooky vintage greeting cards that feature creepy jack o'lanterns and other creatures of the season!
Vintage Halloween Black Cats
A quartet of playful black kitties romping through eerie Halloweenscapes bring spooky greetings of the season!
Vintage Halloween Witches #1
This gathering of weird sisters would be enough to frighten away any goblins - or perhaps invite them in to play! Check out the companion mug to collect the entire coven!
Vintage Halloween Witches #2
The second company of witches (who actually think they're prettier than their covenmates, at least by early 20th century standards) help usher in some magic to your Halloween festivites!
Vintage Thanksgiving Turkeys #1
Half of our gaggle of vintage greeting gobblers adorn this mug, bringing a touch of warmth and whimsey to Thanksgiving. Be sure to check out the second mug to get the entire set!
Vintage Thanksgiving Turkeys #2
The rest of the flock! Four turkeys that already come with a lot of the trimmings, surrounded by a bounty of fruits, greenery, and fall squashes.
Vintage Thanksgiving Harvest Barns
Four different paintings of classic red American barns surrounded by a bountiful fall harvest!
Vintage Jewel Framed Santa
Merrie images of an old world Santa Claus and children framed in rich colors of cut jewels trimmed in gold
Vintage St Nicholas in Purple Robes
Did you know that before the jolly old elf dressed in red and white, the original Greek St. Nicholas traveled the Turkish countryside in robes of purple? Here we present four depictions of the saint in his more traditional attire.
Woodland Santa
A charming colletion of an old world woodland Santa delivering gifts and candy to excited children at Christmas time!
Vintage Jolly Old Elf
A quartet of panels featuring the jolly old elf surrounded with holiday greenery and framed in gold.
Vintage Santa with Holly
Apparently, back in the good ol' days. Santa didn't hide as much and actually helped children decorate for Christmas! These quaint images are sure to bring a smile!
Vintage Tucked In By Santa
This adorable collection actually tells a bit of a story! A little girl falls asleep. When Santa arrives, he makes sure she's tucked snug im her bed and then watches as she wakes up and joyfully discovers her treasures!
Vintage Santa Around the Town
This is one of my favories, to be sure! A Father Christmas style Santa traveling around town on his magical rocking horse, delivering cheer and holiday decorations as he goes!
