EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming and intricately detailed New Year card from the late Victorian era. Dating back to the 1890s, this unique greeting card takes the shape of a playful kitten peeking out from a bundle of yellow wrapping paper. The kitten's expressive eyes and fluffy fur are sure to bring a smile to the face of the recipient. The card's background is adorned with a beautiful bouquet of holly and other evergreen leaves and berries, symbolizing the enduring strength and renewal of life. The vibrant red berries and glossy green leaves contrast beautifully against the soft yellow wrapping paper, adding to the card's visual appeal. The intricate details of this card are a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the time. The holly leaves and berries are meticulously cut and arranged, each one a small work of art in its own right. The kitten's features are equally detailed, from its tiny nose and whiskers to its curled tail and paw pads. This card is a delightful reminder of the simple joys and traditions of the past. It would make a wonderful addition to any vintage greeting card collection or as a unique and thoughtful gift for a loved one during the holiday season or on New Year's Day. The card measures approximately 4 x 6 inches and is in excellent condition, with no tears, creases, or other damage.
