EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the merry world of Victorian-era holiday humor with this charming antique Christmas card from the 1890s! Instead of the usual red and green hues, this unique card takes the shape of a quirky leather collar or belt adorned with jolly holly leaves and berries. The collar's buckle proudly displays the festive message "X-Mass" – a clever play on words that is both a pun and a visual joke. Imagine the delight of your Victorian-era friends and family as they received this unconventional greeting in their mailbox. The rich, earthy tones of the brown leather and the intricate detailing of the buckle and buckles add a touch of whimsy and humor to the holiday season. This Christmas card is a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of the Victorian era, where wordplay and visual humor were cherished forms of entertainment. It's a delightful reminder that even in the most traditional of holidays, there's always room for a little fun and laughter. So, fasten this festive collar around your heart and let the spirit of Christmas wrap itself around you, as you celebrate the joy and merriment of the season with this one-of-a-kind greeting from the past.
