When Valerie, one of my followers, commented on how much she liked the old Christmas cards in a recent post, it led me on a trip down Memory Lane. I was reminded of the photo Christmas cards that were so popular during the 1940’s, 1950’s and 1960’s. I will be posting the Christmas Cards Marian and Lad sent out each year as their children grew up. Some of you will recognize this type of card, they may be unfamiliar to others. Enjoy them each day for the rest of the month.
This is just a small sample of all the pictures Lad took, with two different cameras. It included group shots and individual shots. I have dozens of pictures from each “shoot”. Greg even changed his shirt – I have no idea what happened. This was an all-Sunday-afternoon after Thanksgiving thing and we hated it until we finally became resigned. (It did get better as we got older.)
Tomorrow, a Christmas Card from 1951.
