Colourpicture Publishers, Inc., was a greeting card and postcard printer and distributor in Boston, Massachusetts, on Newbury Street with a factory at 76a Atherton Street. The firm was in business between 1938 and 1969 and produced linen view cards (a linen postcard was made of textured paper of high rag content rather than actual cloth).
