A Merry Olde Christmas from the Good, Olde Gold Christmas Banking Co. Unlimited: Deposit Your Wishes for Cheer, Joy, Health, and Prosperity! (circa 1890s) Step back in time to the late Victorian era and feast your eyes on this delightful Christmas cheque book greeting from the Good Old Gold Christmas Banking Co. Unlimited. This charming print, brimming with holiday spirit and humour, invites us to deposit our wishes for a joyous, healthy, and prosperous New Year. The Good Old Gold Christmas Banking Co. Unlimited, a playful spoof on the banking industry, was a popular Victorian Christmas novelty. This cheque book greeting, featuring a festive scene of Santa Claus and his reindeer, is a testament to the creativity and whimsy of the era. The punning verse, penned by Angus Thomas, adds an extra layer of amusement: "At this festive season, when hearts are merry and bright, And the old year is passing away, We'll withdraw all our fondest, most treasured delight, And deposit them here in the Bank of Christmas Day. So draw on your account with a free and unlimited hand, And write in the name of the one you love best, And we'll see that the Christmas spirit is well understood, In the Good Old Gold Christmas Banking Co. Unlimited, In the heart of London, where the old gold is found." This 1890s Christmas greeting is a wonderful reminder of the joy and laughter that the holiday season brings, even in the most unexpected places like a Christmas cheque book. So, let us all take a moment to deposit our wishes for a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year, as we continue to be inspired by the rich history and traditions of the past.
