Season's Greetings from Old Wien

27 December 2022

 
For a holiday treat I present
best wishes of the winter season
from old Wien ~ Vienna

Fritz Schönpflug (1873-1951).

 
  
May your favorite horse win every race next year!

fröhliche Weihnachten.

This is my contribution to Sepia Saturday
where cold is just a state of mind.
Let us hope 2023
brings our world
real peace, hope, and love.

Another bunch of nice cards, these with mild humor. I enjoyed the drawings.

I echo your sentiments for the new year.
