Although these cards existed prior to the Victorian era (1837-1901), their popularity peaked during the last ten years of this period. They were like business cards of today, but typically larger with colorful pictures. Mass advertising was not available, so businesses would hand out these cards in their stores. Scrapbooking was very popular then, so is was common for people to add these colorful pictures to their collection. Many companies had their cards cut into paper dolls and other enticing shapes for the children to play with which had advertisements on the back for the parents. Curious Whispers – you can hear them if you listen...
