Blank inside, kraft envelope, cellophane sleeve.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rhyme is older than anyone can trace and everybody's grandmother said it. We have set it in wood-type capitals and Victorian fancy faces inside a border of printers' flowers, and printed it by hand on a press nearly a hundred years old, so the letters sit down into the card and you can feel them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen we have done the obvious thing and put a penny in with it. Not a new one. An old British penny, the big bronze coin with Britannia on the back that went out with decimalisation in 1971, from the drawer of coppers every household used to have. The year varies from card to card, so you may get one older than you are. The luck, we are assured, is the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a card to send to someone who could use a bit of luck: an exam, an interview, a move, a first day. It is blank inside, so the words are yours, and it comes with a kraft envelope, ready to post. It is also just a very good object to leave on a desk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach card is pulled by hand, so the impression and the inking vary a little; that is the point of doing it this way. Printed in a limited edition: when they are gone, they are gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDelivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree, anywhere we send to. Add it to a box and it rides along; order it alone and it goes flat in a stiff envelope by post, to your London hotel, any UK address, or the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFifty pence from this card goes to the cats of London. \u003ca href=\"\/ja\/pages\/cats\"\u003eButtons insisted.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ada \u0026 Vera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58958960525686,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/4177\/7270\/files\/penny-card.jpg?v=1791701160","url":"https:\/\/adaandvera.co.uk\/ja\/products\/find-a-penny-letterpress-card-with-an-old-penny","provider":"Ada \u0026 Vera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
