Henries History

Inset: The ‘placecards’ were actual historic greeting cards, there were props to tie in with the eras (both elements sponsored by House of Cards) while the menu took on an inventive ‘time machine’ design (designed and produced by Windles).

“Greeting cards may not be able to cure all the ills of society, but conversely no one would dispute the positive role that the greeting card sending habit, perpetuated by the GCA, has played in increasing human happiness through this special form of social communication… It is certainly a centenary worth celebrating,” said Jakki Brown, editor of PG in her welcome speech at The Henries awards event last month, which was themed around the 100th anniversary of the GCA. Here’s just a flavour of the historic Henries 2019…
