 Mfg. Unknown Circa: 1911 One of our most unusual Christmas Cards this Double Sided Multi-Layered Embossed, Silver Leafed Postcard has one side that is Velvet and covered with Glitter (the white area that is folded outward) which is held down with tiny metal grommets and areas of Embossed Cotton Fill (underneath the attached) Metal Christmas Tree with a Family Dancing Around It, that reads: "Merry Christmas" on the red bottom piece. The paper Embossed portion of the card also reads: "A Merry Christmas" It looks as if at one time the Tree was Green and perhaps the family was also in color which unfortunately has faded over time. |
