1. Title: A Merry Christmas: A Vintage Postcard Image of a Lady with a Lantern from the Smart Novels Series (circa 1880-1920) This Christmas postcard, hailing from the Smart Novels Series, showcases a beautiful, vertically-oriented, single-view image on its front. The image is printed on red paper with a white background, adding a striking contrast that immediately catches the eye. The matter of the postcard is that of unused, thoughtfully preserved paper. The primary object in the image is a lady, elegantly dressed and adorned with a turban, holding a round, glowing lantern. The lantern, with its warm, inviting light, is adorned with the festive greeting "A MERRY XMAS," adding a delightful touch of Christmas cheer. The lady's expression is serene and welcoming, as if inviting the viewer to join in the joy of the holiday season. The color palette of the postcard is dominated by the rich, warm tones of the lady's attire and the lantern, contrasted against the crisp, clean white background. The design is reminiscent of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, making it a charming relic from a bygone era. This postcard is a beautiful and unique addition to any Christmas card collection, transporting the viewer back in time to a simpler, more romantic era. Its vintage charm and intriguing design make it a treasured keepsake, perfect for sharing the holiday spirit with loved ones.
