   The first image of the double card above shows the part that was mailed and to its left the back of the reply card that was sent back to the sender. The second image of this Kraemer card shows the "message", and the lower half, the card that was returned. (if you turn the 2nd image clockwise 90 degrees the cards will match up). The third card also uses ribbons and is from a "Beau".

   These were called exaggeration cards and were quite popular in the early part of the last century.

  All the cards above were produced by the Fairman Co. of Cincinnati & N.Y. No info

 The first card was sent by the Nonpareil Printing & Publishing Co. 420 Elm Street. The next, Milford, card has no producer listed. 

 This, home made, Easter card  has the Cincinnati, O. sign pasted on, presumably by the sender in 1908.

Mt. Healthy- Cows & Calves

   I don't know why the very rare card above was published but they don't seem to be very happy with the coal companies. Published before 1900 the 2 middle images show the front and back of a card that was inserted inside of the holder on the jackass and held in place by the small flap that was inserted into a slot.
