American Red Cross Christmas Seal

United States · 1910 · None

The seal features a central red cross emblem within a green wreath, surrounded by the text 'May You Have A Merry Christmas' and 'American Red Cross 1910'.

Christmas seals were adopted by the American Red Cross in 1907 to raise funds for the fight against tuberculosis. This 1910 seal is an early example of this philanthropic tradition in the United States.
