Black Country Society Christmas Cards
The Society produced one or more Christmas cards annually from its inception through to the early 1990s. These were of two forms - standard cards with or without some reference to the nativity story, and cartoons drawn by C, L. Baker (CLEBAK). Copies of both are held in Dudley Archives. Images from both types are given in the galleries below. Where possible a date and title is given, obtained from text descriptions in the Blackcountryman. This has been possible in most cases for the standard cards. However, the cartoon cards cannot be assigned to any particular year with any confidence, but were published from the early 1970s to the early 1980s. The cards and images are from the collection of Keith Hodgkins, a former Society Chairman and President.
