Field Notes Vintage Inspired Postcard Set

Field Notes Vintage Inspired Postcard Set

While researching the Great Lakes, Field Notes came across some vintage linen postcards that led them into the fascinating world of Chicago’s Curt Teich & Co, who developed and marketed millions of vibrant “C.T. Art-Colortone” postcards in the first half of the 20th Century. They then set out to recreate the Teich process and style as closely as possible using a combination of old and new methods. This set of five postcards, one each for Lakes Michigan, Superior, Huron, Erie, and Ontario, was created as a tribute to Curt Teich & Co., the firm that revolutionized the postcard industry in the 1930s with their dreamy, photographic, hand-retouched “Art-Colortone” linen cards. They’re all ready for a stamp and a few witty lines to bring a little old-school joy to the mailboxes of your friends and family.
