EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming late Victorian Christmas card, featuring a quaint house in the shape of a quaint residence, adorned with holly and ivy. The snow-covered roof and windowsill add to the festive atmosphere, as a postman in his traditional uniform makes a delivery at the doorstep. The scene takes place on a quiet residential street, where the sound of children's laughter and the warm glow of windows can be heard from nearby houses. The postman, with his postal cart and wheels, carries a sack full of letters and parcels, adding to the sense of anticipation and excitement in the air. The card's intricate details, such as the textured brickwork, the frost on the windows, and the realistic depiction of the postman's uniform, transport us back to the 1890s, making it a cherished keepsake for the holiday season.
