Novel That's the 1 932 Christmas Card
Both Past And Future Suggest Ideas For This Year's Greetings
NEW YORK Vpy To achieve nov
elty without extravagance that a
the thing most of the Christmas card
designers strove for this year. And
a glance around the shops shows that
they have pretty well succeeded.
"Novelty" in Christmas cards per
mits a wide range Into the past as
well as the future. The big Idea Is to
get away from last year's designs and
the year's before that. But go back
to the Victorian age for suggestions
and, the field is as fertile for novelty
as the odd little creations ot the reck
less modernists.
More Depression Carda
That old bogey, the Depression, still
Inspires a number of tricky cards.
The spirit of these is spoofing, sat
irical. They gain effect from mater
ials as well as design. Some of them
are printed on wrapping paper, wall
paper end paper bags.
Last year Santa Calus was out in
the breadline. Well, this year his
reindeer have Joined him. Then
there's the fellow who apparently has
lost his shirt. He stands in a barrel
and explains: "Greetings Between
'Hard Times' and the darned "Depres
sion." Ain't got nothln left but this
pleasant expression.
Getting back to the Victorians, the
treatment of types and scenes of the
era Is refreshing. This trend In
Christmas cards Is a reflection of
style trends In furniture, clothing
and what hav you.
Recent years have been so full of
the zig-zags, contortions and distor
tions of modernists that the pretty
sentiments and conversation of those
dim days are novelty Indeed. Of
course, there are some cards that take
sly pokes at the Victorians, for those
who want to follow aT style but make
their friends snicker as well.
Pet lovers must have their animal
cards, so there Is an abundance of
these, both quaint and modern In
treatment. And .those queer little
penguins, who have wobbled their
way Into such popularity In all man
ner of decorative art, will go thru
the malls on many Christmas greet
ings this year.
Those who want to bo ritzy have
plenty of opportunity, and the cost
lier cards are not so costly as they
were In other years speaking rela
tively, that Is. There are some ex
quisite Imported numbers, etchings
and fine pen and brush work.
For the younger generation, sports
scenes are stressed. And there are
cards appropriate to "kid" friends who
wax enthusiastic over such things as
movies and what-not.

Christmas cards with a new touch are In demand this year, and
there seems to be one for every taste. Among the newest are those dec
