God Jul: Christmas Past
This is a Christmas card from Olea Næss (Skotfoss, Telemark, Norway) to her granddaughter, Irene Barrows, in Amberg, Wisconsin, possibly in 1932. The girls pop up when you pull out the "onskes av" card.

Dear Irene, you may trust that Bestemama and Bestepapa are happy that we got a letter from your Mamma for you know that we love her so. Now you must write that to Norway so that we can get it read. So we wish you a good Christmas. Loving greetings from Bestemama and Bestepapa. Greet Mama and Papa. Olea
