Victorian Weird Art Postcards Set of 10 Christmas X-mas Xmas Cards Postcard Pack Print Edwardian Era Period Aesthetic Funny Cute Unique Gift

Seller's description

VICTORIAN ERA ART
CLASSIC POSTCARDS
SET OF 10

A set of ten postcards, each with different weird and, let's say, unique Christmas art from the Victorian era!
Children heads in flowers (and puddings), child-snatching Santas, owls on tricycles, creepy snowmen - we have it all here. Enjoy!

Satin finish for a vivid colour reproduction on the front, reverse can be written on with all types of instruments.

- 10 different designs
- classic postcard back, left blank for your text
- traditional A6 size (105 x 148m / 4.1" x 5.8")

Honestly, they are just too awesome to post to anyone!
Pinned to a wall, framed on a shelf, in albums, scrapbooks, collages, displays, crafts - these would look, er, amazing anywhere ♡
Or they can be posted after all - with 10 in a set there's enough to go around for some unique Christmas greetings! ♥


Christmas cards originated in the 19th century in Victorian Britain. The first mass-produced cards appeared in 1843, a great invention to streamline the busy correspondence of the season by creating a fancy illustration card with a pre-printed greeting. At shilling each, they were quite out of reach for most people, but with the combination of the freshly-invented Baxter printing process (making colour printing easier and cheaper) and the "penny post" reform (making the postal cost affordable to more people), the cards finally took off to great popularity and the designs became really diverse. Quirky and bizarre scenes, funny animals and black humour seemed to be very common - unexpected topics for a Christmas cards from our modern perspective! Winter themes, snow, holly, robin birds and children (a symbol of innocence and, perhaps, pure holiday joy) were also very popular of course. But not in this set! We're going with the pure and undistilled classics here! :)

(Less disturbing Victorian greeting cards also available here: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/StrandClothing?ref=seller-platform-mcnav&search_query=Victorian+Christmas+greeting+10 )
