Description: Up for bid is a beautiful vintage Christmas postcard. On the front is a lovely lithographic illustration of a snow-covered seaside village. A church and cottages can be seen within the attractive circular frame. What makes this card very special is that when you hold it up to a lighted lamp, the light shows through the windows of the church windows, the cottage windows, the crescent moon, and the Christmas greeting above. Give yourself a treat and supersize image 1 so you can better see the masterful artwork. If you look closely you can see how the card has been die cut to allow for the illumination. This very special postcard has been postally used, and has a 1906 cancellation across the one-cent stamp on its undivided back. What a lovely, unique and scarce 110 year-old postcard! Some lucky bidder will walk away with this one--will it be you?
