6/$15 Antique Gilded Postmarked Golden Age Floral Postcard Pink Rose

A romantic Edwardian gilt floral postcard featuring a single pink rose against a gilded gold background. Smooth surface with rich chromolithograph colour. Printed in Great Britain and mailed from the United States to Nova Scotia. Front: Large pink rose bloom with layered petals and deep green leaves, set sharply against a gold gilt background. The finish is smooth (no embossing), with light speckling and patina typical of early gilt cards. At the bottom, a printed verse panel includes the classic “Gather ye rosebuds while ye may” line, adding to the sentimental tone. Back: Divided back with ornate brown Post Card typography running vertically. Franked with a 1¢ U.S. green stamp and a clear U.S. circular postmark, then forwarded on to Canada. Message written in pencil fills the left side. Condition: Small rubs and specks on the gilt surface, light corner wear, and mild age toning. Back shows normal handling wear but handwriting and postmark remain legible. No major creases or tears visible. Overall: A lovely British-printed gilt rose postcard with a well-known poetic quote and U.S. 1¢ green postage, mailed to rural Nova Scotia — a nice crossover piece for floral, Edwardian, and postal history collectors. 💌 Bundle & Save! ✨ 6 for $15 + $9.99 ship → ≈ $4.70 per card (including tax) ✨ 15 for $35 + $9.99 ship → ≈ $3.40 per card (including tax) ✨ 35 for $50 + $6.99 ship → ≈ $1.85 per card (including tax)
