彦根橘 POSTCARD
【ひこねたちばな】近江彦根二十五萬石井伊家の定紋／井伊家遠江の井伊谷（いのや）に代々住んで、地名をもって井伊となったものである。出は藤原氏で藤原冬嗣（平安時代の左大臣）の六世孫共資（ともすけ）をもって始祖と伝える。共資に男子なく、女子ばかりであった。そこでうまい婿はと物色するうちに、井伊谷八幡社に、神童がいると聞きつけ、迎えたのが共保であった。井伊家の家紋は「井桁」と「橘」で知られる。その二つながら共保の出生にからまる伝説・・八幡の宮司が何げなく境内を歩いていると、井戸の中からなにやらピカピカするものがある。拾い上げると玉のような男の子であった。それで「井より出生するゆえ、井桁をもって旗章とする」ということになった。また「共保出生のとき、井のかたわらに橘一顆あり、このゆえに神主、橘をもって共保が産着の紋につけたり。これにより今にいたるまで、橘を衣類の紋とするといえり」・・だが、・・その真証「覚束なき事なり」（高橋賢一「大名家の家紋」）

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for.
I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording.
Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
