Christmas Card, "Times have changed but we're still wishing you an old fashioned Merry Christmas: Adam Scheidt Brewing Co.," 1951
Add to SetSummary
Karl Koehler designed Christmas cards in the late 1940s and 1950s. Many of his cards had pop-up or movable features -- like this card that features a volvelle. A volvelle is a rotating disk that provides information, makes various calculations, or in this case, reveals different images when turned. Koehler created this seasonal greeting for Adam Scheidt Brewing Company of Norristown, Pennsylvania.
