Vintage Baby Illustrations


There is just something wonderful about little babies.
Aren't they sweet?

My little sister had a baby (her first) last week, so it had me looking at my books for some vintage baby illustrations.  I found some fun toddler and baby images.


Here are three that I found.



I cleaned this one up and made an antiqued version as well as a black and white.





This crying baby below looks pretty upset,
and I'm glad I can't hear him.

I still thought he was pretty sweet, sitting next to the smiling child.
I'm not sure what the necklace is around his neck.  Is it a teether or a vintage pacifier?
  I'd love to know, if any of you can figure it out.






I made an antique and black and white version of these,
and also made a separated version.
I think the crying baby would be fun on a baby shower card or even an "I'm expecting" announcement.
 (Not for me though, just in case you were wondering!)






I love this lady and baby illustration below.

The tenderness is obvious in her face.




I hope you can use these on a card or in some way, if you'd like.

They are all from the late 1800's, so there is no copyright on them,
as far as I know.


Have a happy week!
