Oh - this is a really good one. You should turn all of these into a coffee table book or something.

This is the best I've seen so far, and I'm really into these vintage images. I would imagine that it's either a trade card or blotter. Is the reverse printed with something, or is the piece blotter weight?

Awesome bookmark!

MrCachet, I believe the front is shown in the top picture (on the book), and the reverse in the second pictures.
