Royal Christmas card from 1987 embossed on the front with the Prince of Wales’s feathers and Order of the Garter motto and the Spencer family arms, measuring 16 x 6 open, featuring an affixed color photo of the royal couple posing with their young sons William and Harry, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, "Collie…& with love from us all, Diana" and "and Charles." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope and a certificate of authenticity from Tracks. An uncommon signed Christmas card, examples of which are typically inscribed by Charles.
This card was sent to Violet Collison – who Diana knew simply as "Collie" – the housekeeper at Park House on the Sandringham Estate, where the princess spent her childhood years. Collie remained close to Diana and sent gifts to both her and the princes, William and Harry, for which Diana responded with thank you letters and Christmas cards.
