THE SEEKER FOR NOVELTIES WILL NEVER SEARCH IN VAIN." - EAST SUSSEX NEWS "WHAT WOULD CHRISTMAS BE WITHOUT FATHER TUCK? HAPPILY WE NEED NOT CONSIDER SO DIREFUL A CONTINGENCY, FOR THE GENIAL OLD GENTLEMAN IS AS PERENNIAL IN APPEARANCE AS YULETIDE ITSELF, AND SO TAKES TIME BY THE FORELOCK THAT HE IS READY WITH HIS NEW STOCK OF CARDS, CALENDARS, AND OTHER CHRISTMAS PUBLICATIONS ERE THE LEAVES BEGIN TO FALL." - SUNDAY TIMES "MESSRS RAPHAEL TUCK AND SONS, WHOSE NAME IS SUCH AN EXCELLENT GUARANTEE OF A GOOD THING, PUBLISH A LARGER VARIETY OF THESE NICE THINGS THAN EVER THIS SEASON" - ESSEX COUNTY CHRONICLE
