🎭 From Ancient Greetings to Modern Laughs
Humorous cards have a surprisingly long history. The tradition of sending written messages of goodwill began thousands of years ago in ancient Egypt and China, where people exchanged papyrus scrolls and New Year wishes. By the 15th century in Europe, handmade paper cards—especially for holidays and Valentine’s Day—became popular among the literate classes.
While early greeting cards were sincere expressions of friendship or love, humor soon found its way into the mix. By the mid-1800s, the Victorian era introduced the cheeky “vinegar valentines”—sarcastic, often outrageous cards that poked fun at their recipients. Later, comic postcards from the late 19th and early 20th centuries added cartoons, caricatures, and puns, proving that humor had a natural home in greeting cards long before the digital age.
😂 The Rise of Modern Humor Cards
The golden age of humor cards began in the 1940s and 1950s, when independent “studio card” creators brought a fresh, irreverent style to the market. These tall, witty cards broke away from the overly sentimental tone of traditional greetings, introducing humor that was smart, bold, and sometimes a little mischievous. Artists like Fred Slavic and Rosalind Welcher (Panda Prints, 1946) helped pioneer this movement, inspiring major companies like Hallmark and American Greetings to follow suit with their own funny card lines.
By the 1970s and 1980s, humor had become a staple of the greeting card industry. New publishers like Recycled Paper Greetings and NobleWorks gave artists creative freedom to experiment with sarcasm, parody, and pop culture references. The genre exploded—from gentle jokes to edgy humor, from sweet giggles to full-on belly laughs—and the digital era only amplified its reach.
