Clapsaddle


 Undoubtedly the most prolific postcard and greeting card artist,  Ellen H. Clapsaddle's artwork was first published in 1906 by the Wolf Company an outlet for the International Art Company.  Ellen H. Clapsaddle's story is probably the saddest of any of the pioneers of the greeting card history.  She died unknown and penniless the day before her 69th birthday.  Today her cards are among the most collectible and sell in the range of $10.00 to $200.00, with the mechanical cards going for $450.00 and more.
