A Happy New Year To You

Raphael Tuck Vintage New Year Greeting Card

 

 

This Raphael Tuck & Sons, Limited greeting card is part of my private collection and was never posted or signed.  It was printed at the Fine Art Works in Saxony. Raphael Tuck and his wife started a business in 1866 in London selling pictures, greeting cards, and postcards. This New Year greeting card opens to an Antony Templemore sentiment. In 1893, Queen Victoria granted the firm the Royal Warrant of Appointment. Future sovereigns continued the warrant of appointment as indicated on my card. The back of this card states: Publishers by Appointment to Their Majesties the King and Queen Alexandra.
