I found these early 1960s Baby Shower and New Baby greeting cards for a girl in with some early 1960s baby clothes. The previous owner swore she didn’t want the cards from her baby shower back… so I kept them and scanned them.

I really love the fonts, and the little illustrations and rhymes inside the cards are too cute!

A few of the new baby greetings:

“A gift and a Welcome

for someone small

Who’se getting the happiest

wishes of all!”

“Just a little gift,

for a sweet little mite,

whose come to fill

your home

with delight.”

“It’s raining tiny baby things!

So here’s a little gift

that brings

A wish for showers of joy and fun,

For you and your

little one.”

“Best Wishes

to the Baby

So tiny,

Sweet and new…

And Warm

Congratulations

To the

Happy parents, too!”
