EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a whimsical world of Victorian charm with this delightful image of two little girls sharing a moment of joy and camaraderie on a New Year's card from the 1890s. Dressed in their finest, the girls huddle under a pink and green umbrella, their faces peering through a cutout hole as they gaze at the scene before them. The rain gently patters against the wooden fence behind them, adding to the cozy, nostalgic atmosphere. This charming print, reminiscent of a bygone era, is filled with wordplay and verbal humor. The title "Wishing you happiness through the hole Year!" is a clever pun, inviting the viewer to imagine a hole in time through which they can share in the happiness of the New Year. The girls' smiling faces and the playful design of the umbrella add to the comic effect, making this a truly unique and endearing piece. The intricately detailed cutout design of the card adds to its charm, transporting us back to a time when handmade cards were a cherished tradition. The use of vibrant colors and the girls' cheerful expressions evoke a sense of warmth and joy, making this a perfect addition to any collection of vintage New Year's cards or as a thoughtful and unique gift for a loved one. This beautiful print is a testament to the power of simple pleasures and the enduring appeal of a good joke or pun. It is a reminder that even in the midst of rain and gloom, there is always a reason to smile and look forward to the New Year with hope and anticipation.
