Further information:
"Eric Thake's personal Christmas cards, produced in an uninterrupted span of thirty-five years, have been aptly described by one grateful recipient as 'Thakes down the ages'. Eric Thake himself has noted that after he had produced three of four Christmas linocuts annually from 1941 'my friends had grown to expect one every Christmas–I couldn't let them down and it sharpened my mind and kept the wheels of inspiration turning.'" (from the Foreword)
