A vintage Christmas postcard showing two girls alongside Santa Claus and a teddy bear puts the children at the center of the scene rather than Santa alone, which is typical of holiday cards from the early twentieth century. Postcards of this kind were mass-produced and mailed as seasonal greetings, often with bright chromolithographed colors and embossed borders. The teddy bear is a useful clue to the period, since the toy became popular after 1902, when the image of Theodore Roosevelt and a bear cub helped make stuffed bears a fashionable gift.
