A pair of children stands at the center of this Christmas greeting card, which carries the simple message "With Best Wishes." Inexpensive colored lithograph cards like this became popular in the late 19th century, when printers produced them in large numbers for families to send or tuck into holiday letters. Children were a favored subject of the period, often shown in winter clothing or at play to suggest innocence, family warmth and the cheer of the season. Its placement in the drinks category is worth noting, since many holiday cards of the era included feasting and toasting scenes.
