1930's Motto Pictures


A Piece of History
  This motto picture would make a wonderful gift for your Valentine!
   Titled Somebody's thinking of You, it reads:

   Somebody's thinking of you today--
   Maybe that Somebody's miles away,
   But friendly thoughts are like clasping hands
   That bridge the way over many lands.
   It's the truest thing that you ever knew--
   Somebody's thinking of you.

   The picture shows a small home by a blue stream, with light blue clouds, trees, and a walking bridge, all with a gilded outline.
   Motto pictures were all the rage in the 1920's, 1930's, and 1940's. The pictures were a combination gift and card, with greetings often written on the back.
   Our motto picture is in the original frame, with cardboard backing. It is in very good condition, and would make a perfect gift for a beautiful friend.
   We also have antique motto pictures for mothers, friends and birthdays.
   Stop by Stella's this Saturday to pick up a piece of history for yourself!
