Pictures Say A Thousand Words on Networking Saturday

Pictures Say A Thousand Words, What do Yours Say? One of my shops is filled with postcards, another Digitals so I have it easy and my images are simple.  But when it comes to my vintage books, handmade gift tags etc.  I struggle; pictures with a background or pictures on plain white or black?  I have seen many pictures with a beautifully staged background to match the item but I also see very striking and professional images where the item is on a white background.
So my question of the day is, How do you take your pictures? with a background? without? on black? on white? etc.

Remember if you are looking for the link up there is still 4 days left for this month's, you can find it here: http://www.butterflyintheattic.com/2015/06/just-networking-saturday.html

Have a blessed day

Curt Teich Co. published and printed cards from 1900 - to about 1978.  They kept record of the millions of cards they produced by using a combination of letters and numbers indicating the series and date published; most of their cards use this system but there are a few outliers that do not.  Since this company had been so consistent using production numbers dating them is relatively easy. 

Here are some examples in using this system for Curt Teich cards:
