Herc's the story. We can thank (or biame) one Sir. Henry Cole, an Englishman, who, when the Christmas of 1846 ap- proached, found he didn't have time ta write his usual Christmas letters. However, he had a bright idea. He went ta an artist friend, ordered a picture te be painted, then he had it lithagraphed in black and white and calored by hand on carde suit.able for sending by past. The artist, J. C. Horsley, R.A. chose to paint a cheerful Eng- lish family aeated at theis Christ- mas dinner table. In the next few yearss the ldn ai&the personai Christmas greetlng card was adop- ted by a few other people includ- ing the Royal family, but it. dld not becorne generally papular un- til about 1880.
