Here are two more cards that I spoke about here.
One is dated 1958 and is from Thel,Ralph,Lorraine and Ken. Best wishes and everlasting happiness xxxx. How thoughtful.

The other is from Alan. To my little darling with lots of love from Alan xxxx. So sweet. Again these cards have something that is so uniquely 1950's. It has the little spinning date wheel.

So in the box where I found the cards were knitting patterns. Dating from the 1930's to the 70's. I only got the box for the cards as I am not a knitter. Alas the call of the wool has evaded me.
I particularly liked this booklet. It was covered in brown paper and is still as vibrant today as it was in the 1940's(?). I will be scanning more as the pictures are riveting.
I would love to find, when out fossicking, handmade cardi's and jumpers from this era. I guess alot of them have been unravelled by now or moth eaten but you never know.
