Say Fadeaway



Say!
What would you Say
If I were to Say
What I want to Say
TO DAY?

The illustration on this postcard is done in the fadeaway style. The white clothes on the figures are not outlined or shaded. The clothing fades into the white of the background, and it is the viewer's eyes that fill in the shapes of the figures.

    It's a very pretty card and I do like the style. His feet look a little lonely though.

    I love this postcard. I also was extremely interested in the style you described. I had not heard of this before--though I've seen it many times.

    Thank you so much for posting! Happy Valentine's Day and Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

    This is a neat trick of the eye. All the vertical stripes help, too, I think.
