Carlton Cards, Hallmark, and Ambassador produced some of the most charming seasonal greeting cards of the 1980s and 90s — small illustrated worlds populated by animals with an endearing anthropomorphic quality that made them impossible to throw away. This Carlton die-cut card is New Old Stock: blank, never signed, never sent, in pristine condition with original envelope. Front reads in gilded letters: "For baby's 1st Thanksgiving." Inside: "You're the dearest little blessing of all!"

A beautiful card for a new baby's first Thanksgiving — the kind of thing that gets tucked into a baby book and kept for years.
