Cute or Creepy? A Vintage Collection of Bizarre Baby Postcards
By James Birch to be exact. His own personal collection. Perhaps some of you have already seen some or all of these fascinating images, as Birch’s book (Babylon: Surreal Babies), was published in 2010.
I however, missed out. Created between the 1920′s – 30′s, these vintage postcards range from freaky to even more freaky, (however interesting), if you ask me. After the jump.

“Hey, Nancy. Did you hear that Elizabeth had her baby? I’m going to send her this lovely postcard of baby-stew. It’s not going to give her nightmares of people trying to eat her newborn.”
