Illustrated Christmas cards drawn by John Lewis, printed and sent to family and friends from 1959 to 1966. This professionally framed collection was a gift from Louise to Jay and hangs each year from the lead up to Christmas to their birthdays in March. Note the inscription: [ Don't throw it out! Its a LEWIS ORIGINAL ] that was the treasured mark of a lot of dad's artwork.
