EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a bygone era with this charming ice skating couple, featured on this vintage Christmas greetings card. Dating back to circa 1916, this beautiful print was created in Germany, showcasing the quintessential winter scene of two skaters gliding gracefully on a frozen pond. The romantic pair, dressed in thick coats and hats, hold hands as they gaze into each other's eyes, their breath visible in the crisp winter air. The serene scene is further enhanced by the delicate mistletoe border, adding a touch of whimsy and tradition to the image. The accompanying poem, written in old English script, reads, "With laughter and fun May your Xmas abound, And heartiest greetings, Make the air resound." This seasonal message of joy and merriment perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the holiday season. As you take in the intricate details of this historical print, imagine the laughter and warmth that must have surrounded the creation and sending of this card over a century ago. This timeless image is a beautiful reminder of the enduring power of love and connection, even in the harshest of winter conditions. Whether displayed as a decoration or sent as a thoughtful holiday greeting, this ice skating couple is sure to bring a touch of nostalgia and delight to any home.
