"'Errymay Istmaschray! Ellen, Carl, and Donna Jean Ed, 1933. NRA." Cartoonist Carl Ed (1890-1959) created this card for himself, his wife Ellen, and his daughter Donna Jean in 1933. The Santa impersonators are characters from Ed's Harold Teen comic strip. That's Harold Teen himself tipping his Santa hat on the left, and his sidekick Shadow Smart is doing the same on the right. The teenagers' playful greeting of "Errymay Istmaschray" is, of course, Pig Latin for "Merry Christmas." The eagle and "NRA" on the toy sack refer to the National Recovery Administration , one of the New Deal agencies that U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt established in 1933 to combat the effects of the Great Depression .
