The world s first commercially printed Christmas card, originally marketed in 1843, is being sold through a Boston-based book dealer for $25,000. The card, created by Henry Cole, John Calcott Horsley and Joseph Cundall in the same year that Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol was first published, shows a large family including a young girl gathered around a table drinking glasses of wine. The card proved controversial at the time, with members of Britain s temperance movement decrying the depiction of alcohol consumption by the young girl. Justin Schiller, president of Battledore Ltd., the New York antiquities dealership that currently owns the card, said the card was so controversial when it was released that it was three years before another Christmas card was commercially printed.
