The Golden Era of the
Printed Relief
From the 1870s to the early 1900s scraps or reliefs brought endless
hours of joy and pleasure to both adults and children.
They were bought for pocket money and cherished, like hidden treasure, to be enjoyed and dreamed over.
Albums were full of many types of reliefs which ranged
from animals, flowers, clowns, politicians, postmen,
policemen, clowns and a great many other subjects of all kinds and sizes.
The sheer imagination of the printers, artists and designers
never cease to surprise the present day collector.
