What’s Christmas without Christmas cards? The fanciful greetings here are the work of Oscar Fabres (1894–1960), a Chilean illustrator who studied art in Paris & settled in New York in 1940, where he lived & kept a studio at 715 Madison Avenue. The Oscar Fabres Collection, bequeathed to the New-York Historical Society by the artist’s agent, features his commercial artwork spanning 1940 to 1970, and includes calendars, note cards, clippings, advertisements, magazines, children’s book illustrations, & these one-of-a-kind Christmas cards. The cards, created between 1950 & 1963, depict New York winter scenes complete with the Three Wise Men halting traffic, as well as typically urban characters like doormen, police officers, & pampered pets. Some cards capture Santa Claus in comical scenarios–playing the piano, or perched atop construction site scaffolding, or getting a ticket for his illegally-parked sleigh. http://blog.nyhistory.org/santa-in-the-city-the-christmas-cards-of-oscar-fabres/
