This sweet Christmas card dates, I think, to the 1880s.  It has an artist drawn image of children playing on the access boards for a Bathing Hut at the seaside.  The publisher is not credited.  Printed verse on reverse of card.  The card measures 13.2cm x 7.9cm.  No envelope.  Faint written name on reverse of card.  Some very light glue residue on reverse.

The card is in a very good minus condition overall.   Slight curvature to card.  General edge and corner rubs, tiny creases at bottom corners, a little very light grubbiness to borders, the odd very small, light mark and the odd tiny mark to card, light browning and the odd tiny mark on reverse of card.  Please check scans carefully as they help with the condition too.

Please note surface mail or first class inland mail options are always available, please ask for a quote. I always refund any excess postage charges.
