Souvenir Friday- Mary Blair South America Note Cards

For today's souvenir Friday, I thought I would take a little trip to South America with a set of note cards featuring Mary Blair artwork. First up is the box that holds the set. Very nice 1940s graphics and design.

The set consists of 4 different cards, each card being duplicated once. The first image is Balsa Boats on Lake Titicaca in the Andes.

Next up is Peruvian Market.

Next up is Street Vendors is Cuzco, Peru

Final image is Peruvian Street Scene Clothing Shop.

The final note card is not from the set, but one I found seperately. I believe this is a later card featuring not Peru, but rather Mexico. The title is Boats of Xochimitco Mexico.

The blog will be quiet over the weekend as I am in Anaheim for the National Fantasy Fan Club show. Stop by and see me if you are attending the show.
