Handmade stationery made from vintage 1961 science books

I love these stationary sets made by San Diego enveloper and anagramphile adnagam on Etsy.com. $10 USD for 10 envelopes and blank cards.

Handmade Stationery Set- Vintage 1961 The How and Why Wonder of the Microscope 4bar Stationery Set- Envelopes and Cards


Description

This is a fantastically reminiscent stationery set handcrafted from the pages of a vintage 1961 children's book titled, "The How and Why Wonders of the Microscope." 

It playfully depicts... the wonders of the microscope in marvelous bold vintagey colors. 

I even read in the book about how to draw your own blood to examine under the 'scope... that's probably not allowed in elementary schools these days=)

Anyhow, this set of ten envelopes will come with flat white cards. 

Each envelope measures 3 5/8" x 5 1/8"
Each card measures 3 1/2" x 5"


The envelopes will come with adhesive on the flap so that you can seal them!---

Each one of these handmade envelope liners is individually cut from reclaimed books and is one of a kind... you will never get the same pattern twice!
