1 History of |
|Christmas Seals!
When you see the Christmas sea
do you ever wonder how it started’
It was born in Denmark, home o:
the fairy tales of Hans Christiar
Anderson.
Einar Holboell, a Copenhager
postal clerk, was sorting mail one
snowy afternoon before Christmas
1903, when he thought of the ides
of a penny stamp to swell a func
for children’s hospitals.
Authorized by King Christian,
the first Christian seals were sold
in Copenhagen in 1904.
Holboell’s scheme outgrew his
wildest imaginings, for before his
death in 1927, he lived to see ii
spread to 45 countries.
The seals found their way tc
America on letters and packages
and first attracted the attention ol
Jacob Riis who wrote an article
about them. Few people, however,
were interested in the idea.
Then, in the autumn of 1907,
Emily Bissell, a public health
worker, concerned about the fate
of a small sanatorium, recalled
th article and sat down to sketch
America’s first Christmas seal, a
wreath of holly encircling the
words “Merry Christmas.”
With 50,000 stamps printed and
nowhere to sell them, Miss Bissell
at last enlisted the aid of a colum
nist on a Philadelphia newspaper.
The idea caught and within a few
weeks $3,000 was collected.
The first nation-wide sale was
held the following year and was
backed by newspapers all over the
country, religious and civic groups,
and sponsored by the American
Red Cross and the National
Tuberculosis association.

For you we wish the best
at this Happy Holiday
