Souvenir Friday-1959 Christmas Card

One of my favorite Christmas Cards is the 1959 version from Walt Disney Productions. The front features a classic Christmas fireworks display over Sleeping Beauty Castle. The inside opens to a calendar for 1960 with a dynamic Matterhorn painting.

  4. This is an awesome example of commercial art.

    Notice that it even manages to promote the new release (Toby Tyler and 10 Weeks with the Circus)without hitting you with a mallet.
