EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming vintage Christmas card from the late 1890s depicts three delightful young girls, dressed in the fashion of the era, enjoying a day at the seaside. The girls are each carrying baskets filled with pink roses and other flowers, adding a touch of natural beauty to the idyllic scene. Their outfits reflect the Victorian era, with the older girls wearing bonnets and long dresses, while the youngest dons a sailor shirt and short bloomer pants. The card's cutout design adds a playful and whimsical touch, making it a charming addition to any holiday collection. The reverse side of the card features a verse that reads, "Three little maids at play by the shore, With baskets of roses, so fair and so rare, They gather the flowers with hearts full of lore, And sing songs of joy, as the sun sets there." This sweet and nostalgic image brings to mind the simple pleasures of childhood and the magic of the holiday season.
