Mistletoe, holly, snow and grandfather clock border this home scene in winter at sunset. Clock appropriately shows about 3 minutes to midnight. Embossed card is dated December 30, 1916 and sent from Chelsea, Massachusetts. Sent to “Mrs G. W. Spaulding, Pepperell, Mass., Box 26” and signed, “Many returns, John.” Census and online city directories are not showing a G. W. Spaulding, a George Spaulding, or a G. H. Spaulding in or very close to Pepperell, but this is nevertheless, a very nice card. I like the snow border, in particular.

Divided back, embossed, used postcard. Dated December 30, 1916. Publisher unknown.
