EDITORS COMMENTS
"Step right up to this enchanting Victorian Christmas card from the late 1890s, featuring a jolly clown breaking through a rectangular paper scene. Dressed in his colorful red and green costume, complete with a ruff, pom-pom hat, and painted face, this entertainer brings a delightful burst of cheer to the holiday season. The clown's smiling face, with its exaggerated features and rosy cheeks, is a testament to the joy and merriment of the festive period. The card's comic verse adds to the playful atmosphere, with the lines "A Merry Christmas to All, and to All a Good Break!" suggesting a lighthearted take on the traditional holiday greeting. Despite the merriment, the card also carries a sense of nostalgia, with the torn and hole-punched edges adding a charming, aged effect. The clown's costume, while vibrant and eye-catching, also evokes the classic circus aesthetic of the era. This Christmas card is a delightful reminder of the past, showcasing the whimsy and joy that the holiday season brings. It invites us to embrace the spirit of the season, to laugh, to be merry, and to break through the ordinary with a touch of the extraordinary."
