i had so much fun with the Thanksgiving postcards, and enjoyed seeing the ones other people displayed, that i thought i'd continue the custom for Christmas.
so, Merry Christmas to all! and Joy to the World!, to borrow a couple of thoughts on the season. thanks for all the help this year, everyone, and i hope we all have a great New Year as well to look forward to.

This postcard with a 1909 postmark is one of my favorites. I am using the image as the base of my Christmas cards this year.

Tomwiii,
I have not watched it for years. I am going to see if I can find it to rent during the holidays. We collect optical toys so I love magic lantern references.
This image below is not a postcard but an illustration from a copyright 1906 linen children's' book.

It's not a postcard... but it's definately one of the most recognized Santa images!

All these postcards are charming. I'm guessing they are not for sale, but a private collection.

Those of us that are circa 1950's know the REAL Santa is the one drinking Coke (probably the reason I won't drink Pepsi)

You win with two of the ugliest cards, so far, I've ever seen.
neglus yes, ugly, but it doesn't beat that family with the cat.
The mother & daughter card you posted is really beautiful.
vintage, is your card blurry or is it my computer.

vintage,
The one where you said this:
"all the cards i post in here are for sale, the exception being
the piece de resistance that i'm saving for the very last"
It's not just blurry, it's [b]extremely[b] blurry.
Wonder if it's looks that way to anyone else.

none are blurry to me. a few look like they need Adobe smart fix or something.
hmmmm - that's interesting - I never noticed you had a black Santa in there!
(I'm sorry - was that politically correct to say?)
