Antique Christmas Postcard 1910s Embossed Bells Holly Winsch Goshen NY Postmark

Goshen, New York, USA1911Pre-linenGood

Three silver and gold bells tumble against a spray of holly and snow-dusted berries, with a framed winter cottage scene peering through bare trees above — the whole image richly embossed and copyrighted by the celebrated John Winsch, whose holiday cards are among the most sought-after in the golden age postcard hobby. Postmarked from Goshen, New York (Orange County), this card traveled to a Miss Hannah in Warwick, New Jersey, carrying a brief but affectionate holiday note in a slanted cursive hand. Winsch cards command a loyal collector following, and this bells-and-holly design from his 1911 copyright series represents the publisher at the height of his art.
