This vintage Christmas postcard shows a real family, because it's a photo. This postcard was posted in 1917.
It used to be quite popular, as it is now, for families to have a photo taken of themselves, have it printed out and sent to friends and relatives.
Now I'm just wondering, why wasn't this dad at the front in 1917? Did he come home already because he was wounded? Or was this photo taken before the war?
