EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and intricately detailed Victorian-era cutout Christmas and New Year card features four smartly dressed guardsmen standing in a row, proudly displaying their medals and bearing the traditional bearskin hats and red jackets with black trousers and white gloves. The guardsmen, who are not identified by company or regiment, exude an air of discipline and dignity, making this an elegant and sophisticated holiday greeting. The card, which dates back to the late 1890s, is a testament to the grandeur and opulence of the Victorian era and the importance placed on military tradition during the holiday season. The guardsmen's uniforms, with their gleaming buttons and intricate designs, are a feast for the eyes, and their stern yet friendly expressions add a touch of warmth and humanity to the festive scene. This beautiful card is a must-have for collectors of Victorian Christmas cards, military memorabilia, or anyone looking to add a touch of history and elegance to their holiday decorations.
