Scarce Royal Christmas and New Year card from 1981, with the front featuring a delightful color image of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip posing alongside the newly wedded Princess Diana and Charles, Prince of Wales, measures 12 x 8.5 open, signed inside in fountain pen, “Lilibet, 1981." The Prince Philip signature is autopen. In fine condition, with some light soiling. An especially interesting signature from the queen, as she only ever signs with her nickname, "Lilibet," for very close friends and family. She was given the nickname as a young child, and it is essentially only her immediate family members who are permitted to use it.
