Thursday is Request Day - Child with Doll, Feather, Horse, Ski

It's Thursday so that means it's request day here at TGF!

Here's what I found for you this week:


Click on images to enlarge

Gramma Jeannie was hoping for images of children with dolls. This sweet little Victorian girl has a doll and a doll house! Lucky child!




William was looking for a feather image. You would think that would be easy, wouldn't you? But I have looked and looked and this was all I could come up with... besides the ones HERE. This one is actually a diagram of a feather from an old dictionary.




An anonymous reader requested a Horse graphic. This one is from a very early Natural History book.



And lastly Kristen was wishing for a vintage Ski image. This one is from an antique dictionary, notice the spelling!! The definition stated that this was something used by Norwegians!

Well, that's all for this week. Do you have a request for an image? If so please leave it here in the comments section of my Request Day post, and then check back on Thursday to see if I found your requested image (Sorry but I can't fill every request, I usually pick a few each week). Each week I go back and check under my Thursday posts to find what your looking for, it's so much easier for me that way. I'm afraid I'm a very disorganized Fairy, so please, please please Do Not email requests to me, I most likely will loose it if you do. So sorry but I'm a complete mess when it comes to email! I'm afraid they're just aren't enough hours in the day to answer them all, and then I feel horribly guilty.

P.S. Don't forget to use the search box here on my blog, you might find that the image you want is already here!

  1. Karen, you have no idea how much I love that ski image...my sister is a skiier and she loves anything Skandinavian...I have been wanting to make her something with a ski theme. I will definitely share what I end up making for her. I am so excited! This is perfect and thank you so much! Kristen

    Request: Dutch children or other Dutch images

    BTW, I have a semi-large collection of magazines, postcards, etc. from Civil War through the 20s - at some point when I have time (day job is time consuming and stressful) I will send you some descriptions if you would like some to distribute.

  15. Karen, I just recently found your blog. Thanks so much for all of the wonderful images. I have already downloaded quite a few of them. I'm just not sure what to do with some of them. I am really into anything that is vintage French. I'm thinking burlap here. Really good Eiffel towers are hard to come by. So anything that is French is appreciated.

  23. I LOVE the suitcase with the vintage travel stickers! but, I was wondering if you have any way of separating the images? I'd love a couple choices of just the stickers- I have an old trunk that someone wrote on with a sharpie, and I'd love to cover it up with some like images. :)
    thanks!!!
