EDITORS COMMENTS
A jovial scene from the late Victorian era, this charming Christmas and New Year card features two friends, each with a pipe clenched between their teeth and a tobacco pouch in hand. The card's comic design adds a playful touch to the traditional holiday image. The first friend, with a bushy beard and a red scarf, wears a festive holiday hat adorned with holly and ivy. His companion, with a neatly trimmed mustache and a striped sweater, dons a Santa Claus hat. The friends exchange a hearty laugh, their pipes puffing out clouds of smoke into the winter air. The card's background is adorned with evergreen branches, red berries, and golden stars, adding to the festive atmosphere. The words "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year" are written in elegant script at the top, while the bottom left corner bears the date "circa 1890s." This delightful card captures the spirit of friendship and camaraderie during the holiday season, making it a treasured keepsake from a bygone era.
