The first Christmas cards were created in England on 9 December 1843, although some websites state the year was 1842. Either way, the idea came from Sir Henry Cole, Director of London's Victoria and Albert Museum, who asked his friend, artist John Calcott Horsley, to design a card which could become commercially available to the public - and to also be used by Cole himself.
