EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming early 20th century Christmas card featuring a child holding a slate and pen, surrounded by playful scribbles and sums. The trompe l'oeil design on the card skillfully replicates the texture and appearance of a wooden slate and string, adding to the authenticity of the scene. The child, dressed in turn-of-the-century clothing, concentrates intently on his calculations, while a curious dog looks on from the side. The use of mathematics as a theme reflects the importance of education during this era, with arithmetic being a fundamental skill taught in schools. The intricate details of the pen and the individual scribbles on the slate add to the card's enduring appeal and make it a delightful find for anyone with an interest in history, education, or the simple joys of childhood. This vintage Christmas card is a wonderful reminder of the past and a cherished keepsake for collectors and enthusiasts of antique holiday greetings.
