A plum pudding, shown with a sled and wishes for a merry Christmas, makes this card stand out from the many holiday postcards that feature Santa or snowy village scenes. Christmas postcards like this one were popular in the early 1900s, when the picture postcard was at the height of its use for sending greetings by mail. Plum pudding was a traditional centerpiece of the British and American Christmas dinner, so the card reflects the festive food customs of its time. Its placement on this board, under health and beauty, reflects how the gallery groups images by theme rather than by the card's original purpose.
