"Merry Christmas to You, too!," 1951

Since the late 1800s, sending Christmas cards to family, friends, and neighbors has become a holiday tradition for those who celebrate. Many cards feature traditional holiday images (Santa, trees, candles, etc.). Some even depict the new technologies that affect Americans' lives. This humorous card from the 1950s shows Santa and his reindeer entangled in television antennas sprouting on rooftops at that time.
