(POSTCARDS) A charming group of 20 primarily French real photo postcards, each embellished with a special feature, material, or color, including real hair, glitter, die-cuts, embossing, inlaid fabric, applied jewel shapes, embroidery, and ribbons, all with an overall effect of surreal kitsch. The images include a pre-Raphaelite-like woman with voluminous real hair, a splendid sparkly hat, dried flowers applied over ribbons, a woman with a guitar and embroidered shawl, an embossed card with 2 women in dresses shaped like mermaid tails painted pink and green, and a bathing beauty holding a hat that lifts. Real photo post cards, each measuring 5 1/4x3 5/8 inches (13.3x9.2 cm.), and the reverse; a few with period writing or postmarked. Circa 1910s-40s
