Hallmark "This is Holly" #25X 338-9 & 629-9

Double Spreads:  Inside Pages for Green Front Outside with Blue Coat  Single Pages:  Doll Front Back Inside Left Inside Right

This series of Hallmark cards were illustrated by Vivian "Viv" Smith. They came with the doll tucked inside the card, with its head slipped through the perforations on the front. I have two color variations of Holly, this version with a green coat and dark blue plaid suit under the Hallmark label, and one with a light blue coat and suit under the Ambassador label. The green-coated Hallmark version also came with (at least) two salutations: #25X 338-9 "To a Dear Little Girl" and #25X 629-9 "For a Sweet Niece", quite possibly more. All three cards are from 1958 to 1959.

Each card is provided here in two sizes: with two sides together at greeting card size, and with each page separately at letter size. The single page versions have a whiter background, to save ink on printing. Click on the pictures above to open the size for the double-page spread; click on the links to open the full-size single pages. (The back and the inside right pages are nearly identical in both versions, so to provide more variety in the clothing, I've also made recolored versions of those pages in the full page size; see link below.)

When printing, be sure to print at 100% (or at least, use the same scale when printing the doll and the card pages.) Do not use Fit to Page, or the clothes will not fit the doll, since the doll page is smaller than the clothing pages. Making them both fit the paper will scale them by different amounts.
