POSTCARD 1:
Any one have idea what period this card is? The card is unused and does not have any other information on the back, aside of course for the address line and stamp box. I find this fascinating because of the color of the flowers, and of the angelic face of the little girl. Any help?
POSTCARD 2 (Embossed pre-1920)
I was browsing old photographs being sold in a gallery when behold, I saw this used embossed postcard! I was so excited that I immediately bought it without second thoughts! Simple but I was really amazed to see for the first time an embossed card!
Translation (thanks to Bel)

Came across this while reading the postcard entry on Wikipedia,
*Oilette - A trade name used by Raphael Tuck to describe postcards reproduced from original paintings.
That means that above is a painting of Harry Payne. However, after browsing some sites on the site, it doesn't include the above painting on the list done by Harry Payne! Any thoughts anyone? Thanks
