About this piece

Antique embossed Christmas postcard featuring a triptych-style winter design: a central arched panel with a snow-covered yellow cottage, church steeple, and holly berries in bloom, flanked by two side panels of snowy trees and evergreens. Gothic-style holly corner ornamentation frames each panel. The greeting reads "A Bright and Happy Christmas to One and All," set beneath the illustration with an illuminated-style initial letter and holly sprigs.

The card has a divided back, consistent with the c.1907–1915 Golden Age of postcards, and is marked "Made in U.S.A." No publisher name or postmark is visible.

Condition: VG-. Please examine photos closely — visible creasing and a couple of small edge/surface cracks are present along the top and card edges, consistent with age. No writing on the front; back not shown.

A nice piece of early-1900s holiday ephemera, suitable for collectors of antique Christmas postcards or embossed holiday paper.

Item will be securely packaged and shipped quickly.
