Two 1-cent Washington stamps double-frank this charming Christmas card, postmarked from Braddock, Maryland in December, addressed to "Miss Alice Brace" in Poolesville, Maryland — a small agricultural town in Montgomery County where such holiday greetings would have arrived by rural free delivery. The front presents a quietly elegant embossed design: two trailing poinsettia sprigs curl gracefully above and below a horizontal winter landscape of snow-covered fir silhouettes against a luminous yellow-green horizon, with the verse "I wish you a right glad time / This Merry, Merry Christmas" rendered in period script. The sender identifies herself playfully as "Miss Liz" — a single personal detail that lends this card a friendly, intimate character. The card shows notable staining from an old liquid spill on both front and back, reducing its visual grade.
