Raphael Tuck & Sons' "CHRISTMAS POINSETTIA" Postcard Series No. 558 ~ c.1910

Postcards : Paper : Holiday, Seasonal : Christmas

 

The following sentiment is printed in a stylish, decorated script: "I Wish You and Yours Every Christmas Joy: Health, Happiness and Peace Without Alloy"

This attractive, artist-signed, vintage post card features an inset vignette of a sunny, country lane scene. Framing the verse are branches of mistletoe and lovely, red flowers of the poinsettia plant. The stylised illustration and lettering of this card might strike some as in the manner of Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

This Edwardian-era postally-unused, divided-back post card wasn't mailed but does bear an inscription. This antique postcard was "Printed in U.S.A." by the "Art Publishers To Their Majesties The King and Queen" in the very early 1900s.

This piece of Christmas Day-related ephemera / memorabilia is in good condition with little of the attendant signs of age and/or wear (i.e. blunted corners, edge wear). It would look great framed or displayed as a decorative holiday accent to grace your home.

Worldwide Postage & Packing is $2.50. Multiple items purchased from SHARP OBJECTS may be combined for shipping purposes.
