EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up to this enchanting Christmas card from the late 1890s, featuring a jolly clown in full regalia, precariously balancing on a tightrope high above the tranquil sea. The clown, dressed in a vibrant pink and yellow costume with a ruffled collar and oversized shoes, wears a painted face with a broad grin and expressive, button-studded eyes. His red nose and floppy hat add to the playful charm of this whimsical scene. Beneath the clown's high-wire act, the deep blue sea meets the jagged rocks below, creating a sense of both wonder and trepidation. The calm water reflects the twinkling stars above, adding to the magical atmosphere of this Victorian-era Christmas card. This delightful entertainer, with his acrobatic tricks and comic antics, would have been a popular addition to holiday celebrations during the late 1800s. The circus was a beloved form of entertainment during this time, and the inclusion of a clown on a tightrope adds an exciting and daring touch to this festive card. This beautifully preserved card, with its intricate details and rich colors, transports us back to a simpler time, when the joy and wonder of the holiday season were celebrated through the art of handmade cards and the thrill of live performances.
