Laura Seddon Greeting Card Collection
Laura Seddon Greeting Card Collection is a collection of greeting cards now in the Manchester Metropolitan University, in the Sir Kenneth Green Library, on the All Saints Campus.
==Overview==
The collection consists of a section of 32,000 Victorian and Edwardian greeting cards by major publishers of the day. It includes cards printed by hand like those produced by Sockl and Nathan and also mass-produced cards (a subsequent production method) like those produced by Marcus Ward & Co and Raphael Tuck & Sons. Some of the cards hold special significance, like Britain's first commercially produced Christmas card〔 dating from 1843.
The collection is catalogued in Laura Seddon's book ''A Gallery of Greetings''. Another section of the collection includes 450 Valentine's Day cards dating from the early nineteenth century, which Seddon also catalogued. The cards vary from loving to crude and show a different side to the Victorian values that might be expected. The cards include fake wedding certificates, cards that make references to haliotis and others that suggest that the recipient may face being "left on the shelf".〔(Valentine cards reveal Britain’s relationship history ), Manchester Metropolitan University, retrieved 22 November 2013〕
