some Louis Prang Christmas Cards

Louis Prang published some very successful greeting cards about a hundred years ago. He ran yearly contests with large prizes and used the cards as the basis for some of his Christmas Cards. They were not simple pictures of Santa or Christmas trees but elaborate images. For more information on Prang go to Father of the American Greeting Card.
