These cards were done my Mary Blair as design for It's a Small World and were sold to benefit Unicef.

i love mary blair, i could kiss you for finding these. :)
I really, really, really want to find this set of cards!!
I cant believe you don't have them - I thought I had a couple extras - I will let you know if I still have them
These are wonderful!
These are darling, I'm going to use the 2nd one as a desktop pic.
Love your blog. It's in my folder of must visit daily sites. Thanks for giving me a smile each day ;-)
PS: the Mary Blair cards are great! I've added a few of these to my screensaver photo collection.
I know that Blair's style was similar to many other commercial artists of the 60s and 70s, but I was wondering - was she perhaps responsible for the illos on the "Eat-It-All" ice cream cone dispenser box that we all saw in virtually every ice cream parlour in the US during that time? You know the one I'm talking about - it was a rosy-cheeked boy & girl eating an ice cream cone; very colorful and very similar in style. That image made an indelible mark on my psyche.
I dont think she had anything to do with the Eat It All kids. As has been noted elswhere she did the Meadow Gold Girl.
