Description: A message-face postcard produced and copyrighted by George A. Wolf in 1904. This Christmas and New Year's postcard has a decidedly Delawarean bend; not only is it attributed to the state via the title "State of Delaware Post Card," but it also features the state's seal and Blue Hen's chickens, Delaware's state bird. These are depicted alongside festive imagery, including an oval scene of children gathered around a fireplace with stockings and a Christmas placed within a silver bell.
