Pigment of Your Imagination

Korean souvenir of a real photograph glued into a handpainted scene, circa 1950s. Anyone else seen one like this? I wonder if GI's sent them home to their sweethearts during the war?

Oh, how fun! My sister and I have several pictures from when we were growing up in Germany that had us riding a donkey up a mountain, and only the donkey was real, or riding an airplane in the sky - the airplane was real, against a painted sky. I was always amazed at how the photos looked when they were developed, compared to how the set looked.
