Summary
Christmas greeting card-right hand opening made of grey marbled paper folded into four. An additional layer of silver coated paper is glued in between the two front papers and a further sheet of marbled paper is slotted into the inner back page. Front-the silver paper sticks out beyond the marbled paper to create a border on the right and bottom edges of the card. The picture is of a stage coach being driven through some trees. The ground is covered in snow. Below the picture are the words Greetings and Best Wishes Inside is the verse May memory weave a golden web Of happiness and pleasure, And love and joy your Christmas fill In overflowing measure. To Greet You with the old, old wish A Happy Christmas and a Prosperous New Year From Mr. & Mrs. John Clayton Ingle Nook, Mexborough. Christmas , 1937 Rear blank.
