✨Antique Victorian Girl Themed Christmas Postcard✨
🔔 DESCRIPTION
Bring a touch of early 20th-century holiday warmth to your collection with this gorgeous, authentic antique Christmas postcard.
This collectible piece of holiday ephemera features a vibrant, heavily embossed illustration of a young Victorian girl in a ruffled yellow tiered dress and blue shawl, elegantly holding an open paper fan with red silk ribbon accents. She is set against a deeply textured metallic-silver stone plaque wrapped in a lush green holly wreath with vibrant red berries. The plaque features a classic poetic holiday greeting: "A Merry Xmas One And All Happy Hearts Large And Small.
"The reverse side highlights the distinct "Christmas Nation Series No. 13" logo publisher printing on the left edge. It features a hand-inked, elegant cursive message reading "Season's greetings, From your Cousin Ray," beautifully addressed to "Miss Eva Crumbling" of "Oregon, Illinois, R.R. #1."
