Hi Anne,
I read your article about the history of greeting cards. I’ve never given it any thought–I imagine, from the article, that cards were very prized. At least I hope they were. Sometimes the value of things is not realized until way after the fact. But I’m thinking the rarity of the first cards may have put them into the keepsake category.
