The Tradition of Sending Christmas Cards

Sending holiday cards has been a cherished tradition for over a century. The custom of exchanging Christmas cards dates back to the 19th century, with early designs featuring religious scenes, festive greetings, and winter landscapes. Over time, styles evolved to include playful illustrations, Santa Claus motifs, and decorative typography—much like the mid-century modern aesthetic seen in this postcard
