Rubber Stamps

1950  Rubber stamp for MM.  6" x 3".  Wooden backing shows the stamp's design.  Unknown source, date, or cost.

The rubber side of the stamp shows the image more clearly than the stamped version, worn perhaps from use.  One can see clearly the chickens, pig, and cow that the milkmaid dreamed of along the way to the market.  See also the "Thank You" stamp under "Household."

1970? 12 fables de La Fontaine: 12 tampons à imprimer et à colorier.  à partir de 6 ans.  Compagnie du Jouet.  Made in France.  Source unknown.

Now here is something new and different!  These stamps may have lost some of their edge after years (decades?) of non-use.  As I at last have returned to cataloguing this unusual set, I had to go online to buy an inkpad.  It is a delight to see how each of the stamps actually looks!
