Noel, Bob Hildrebrand, 1956

Noel, Bob Hildrebrand, 1956
A unique handpainted Christmas postcard made from some sort of art board. Postmarked in York, Pa., Dec. 22, 1956, and sent to Lancaster, Pa.

I believe that the artist who painted this postcard (it's not a print) was H. Robert Hildebrand, who was known for his paintings of dogs and other animals. See the following blog postings: York County Native H. Robert Hildebrand Was a Prolific Pet Portraitist and More Cute Dogs with Famous Owners Painted by York Native H. R. Hildebrand.

For another postcard painting by the same artist, see Merry Christmas, Bob Hildrebrand, 1955.
