Photo of a postcard featuring three children and a snowman in a snowy scene with the inscription, 'A merry Christmas'. Folded cards as we know them now did not emerge until the 1920s-'30s. This card, carrying a King Edward VII green half-penny stamp with the greeting, "See you in the New Year" and the cancellation of the office of origin and the addressee are a mere five miles apart, both in Cornwall.
