These items were based upon the
postcard designs but were generally used for advertising purposes. The blotters
were more fragile than the postcards simply due to the materials used in their
manufacture so good quality blotters are difficult to find.
Several companies issued blotters, the most prolific probably
being Edward Blight the motor & cycle engineering company who issued a
series of advertising blotters in the late 1920's. A series entitled "Parodied
Poems" was issued by several companies and these show very early Studdy comic
illustrations.
