Vintage Aesthetic Decorative Magnets

This collection consists of four vintage-style decorative magnets, each featuring a distinct illustrative or photographic motif. One magnet depicts a rectangular Queen of Clubs playing card with a traditional golden-hued, double-headed illustration. A second, oval-shaped magnet showcases a formal photographic portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara against a vibrant magenta background. The third magnet is an irregular, scalloped shield-shape featuring a historical portrait of a noblewoman, likely Elizabeth I, characterized by an elaborate lace ruff and pearl jewelry. The fourth magnet is die-cut in the shape of a detailed honeybee or bumblebee, featuring fine anatomical line work and muted yellow and brown tones. All pieces appear to be constructed from a printed paper or laminate face adhered to a thin magnetic backing. The items show signs of age-related wear, including slight yellowing of the borders, minor surface abrasions, and softened edges, suggesting a production era likely in the late 20th century. The printing quality shows good detail typical of mass-produced souvenir or giftware items from the 1980s or 1990s. There are no visible maker's marks on the front surfaces, and the overall condition is fair to good given the expected patina for vintage kitchen or office ephemera.
