Merry Christmas Child Ice Skating Hand Drawn Painted Art 1910 Postcard

The Merry Christmas! postcard features a young child, likely a girl, adorned in a vibrant red coat and a distinctive conical hat, clutching a white fur muff amidst a snowy landscape. Such winter attire, particularly the fur muff for warmth and status, was characteristic of children's fashion during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The illustration, signed with the initials GEM, captures a popular idealized depiction of childhood for holiday greetings.
