EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming Victorian-era Christmas card from the late 1890s, featuring a unique and cozy design. The front of the card is in the shape of a furry muff, adding a touch of warmth and whimsy to the holiday season. The muff is closed, with intricate stitching and a plush, sepia-toned exterior that resembles the real thing. Upon opening the card, a delightful surprise awaits. Inside, the muff magically transforms into a beautiful rural winter scene. Snow-covered trees and quaint cottages dot the landscape, with a serene pond reflecting the clear, crisp winter sky. The scene is completed by a horse-drawn sleigh making its way through the snow, adding a sense of adventure and excitement to the winter wonderland. The verse inside the card reads, "May the warmth of your heart and home be as soothing as a muff on a cold winter's day. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year." The words are written in elegant script, adding a personal touch to the already special card. This beautiful Christmas card is a testament to the creativity and craftsmanship of the Victorian era. Its intricate design and charming winter scene make it a treasured keepsake for any collector of vintage Christmas cards or antique holiday memorabilia.
