Electric Light Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt in costume Postcard

Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt’s fancy dress ball was the social event in N.Y.C during the spring of 1883. This image was taken just prior to her ball, and the torch did indeed light up, thanks to batteries hidden in the dress.This costume, and the ball itself, actually changed New York society's social hierarchy forever. It was after all, the grandest ball of all time as far as the party goers were concerned.

I had never seen these classic science fiction images and most of my friends have not seen them either. They are like little treasures! Amazing quality and fun to send people!

I joined Postcrossing a few months ago and wanted postcards to represent my state well. I found them on Zazzle. I purchased numerous cards and was impressed with all of them. Excellent! The colors are beautiful. The cards have the exact look I wanted. I couldn't be happier.
