Free Vintage Clip Art: People Around the World
Although the free clip art images below that features people from around the world doesn’t represent every country and every ethnicity, the focus is more international than usually found in vintage art collections. That’s because most of this free vintage clip art comes from advertising or product labels.
It’s good to see that at least industry leaders knew they needed to reach out to people of different nationalities, even if the general populace of the time didn’t necessarily embrace that viewpoint. Having said that, the principle of inclusion may not have been in play when Rough on Rats put a Chinese man about to eat a mouse on its label. Let’s hope they were just kidding around.

How many hours have we wasted hoping to find great “scrap” (how could they call it such a thing?) Thank goodness for VHC — you have done all of the legwork and leave us with the painful decision of which ones do I get first?!!
