Hi Carolyn,

Wow!! 10/10 for artistic interpretation :)  That's super!  Thank you very much Carolyn.

I have another from 1938 to post too, but it's a little more 'worn' than this one.

Again, many thanks to you all,

Debbie

Hi Yvonne,  Hi  Jim,

Many thanks to you both.  I love the way you've both used the colours.  It almost looks like it was taken yesterday doesn't it?

Does anyone know when the use of photographs as Christmas cards came in?  Just curious as I have 3 of my Dad.

Once again, I appreciate your hard work...thank you :)

Aha! Just found this...the home photograph card begins in 1902 by Eastman Kodak.

Not easy to find...I was surprised.
