1908 Christmastide Remembrance

There’s something wonderfully sentimental about this 1910 vintage Christmas greeting—rich in language, design, and the quiet symbolism of the season. Set against a softly textured, off-white background, the message reads: “Hearty Remembrances to all whom you know I love to Remember,” signed simply, evocatively, “Dickens.” Below, in warm red script, the familiar cheer of “Merry Christmas” unfolds, paired with a wax-seal-style emblem stamped “XMAS,” adding a personal, almost handwritten quality to the card.

Winding through the text are delicate blue forget-me-nots and curling green ivy leaves—floral choices full of meaning. In Victorian flower language, ivy symbolized enduring affection and fidelity, while forget-me-nots stood for remembrance and true love. Together, they quietly echo the sentiment of the message, making this card not just a holiday greeting, but a heartfelt keepsake meant to last beyond the season.

With its refined script, natural embellishments, and gentle nod to Dickensian warmth, this card speaks to a time when Christmas was as much about memory as it was about celebration.

This exquisite vintage postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift or stocking stuffer, a unique holiday decoration, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
