EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming Victorian-era Christmas greeting card in the form of a delightful little dog wrapped in pale green wrapping paper. Dating back to the 1890s, this unique and intricately detailed card design showcases a pug-like pooch adorned with a red collar and sporting a festive mistletoe bouquet on its head. The mistletoe, a symbol of love and happiness during the holiday season, is beautifully rendered with its lush green leaves and vibrant red berries. The dog's body is cleverly crafted from multiple layers of paper, giving it a three-dimensional appearance that adds to the overall whimsy and charm of the card. The muted green hue of the wrapping paper complements the rich reds and greens of the mistletoe, creating a harmonious color palette that embodies the spirit of the season. This precious card, a testament to the creativity and artistry of the late 19th century, is a wonderful find for collectors of antique Christmas cards, vintage ephemera, and those who appreciate the beauty and nostalgia of bygone eras. It's a delightful reminder of the simple joys and traditions that have endured through the years, making it a cherished addition to any holiday collection.
