Christmas card (card)

Descriptions

Dorothy Liddell was the director of archaeological excavations at Hembury near Honiton, the first large-scale systematic excavation in Devon.

This Christmas card has a rather unseasonal illustration but the picture of a sundial and the motto ‘Amidst ye flowers I tell ye hours) might have appealled to an archaeologist.

This object is not on display.

Inscription

front printed on scroll as part of card design Amidst ye flowers I tell ye houres
