Christmas 1821 in 1921 in 2021

In 1921, a New York Times writer looked at old newspapers to write about Christmas a century before.

[F.A. Collins, “Christmas a Century Ago: Holiday Gifts Which Pleased New Yorkers in 1821 — Vogue of ‘Vernacular Cards.’” The New York Times, December 25, 1921.]

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it.

Merry Christmas, Michael, and thank you for another year of wonderful, funny, varied, and smart posts. Good luck finishing the Stumper.

Same to you, Stefan, both Christmas-wise and crossword-wise.
