In the United States, Season's Greetings and Happy Holidays have become a common holiday greeting in the public sphere of department stores, public schools and greeting cards. Its use is generally confined to the period between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. American use of the term Happy Holidays to replace Merry Christmas dates back to the 1970s and was a common phrase relating to the Christmas season in the 1890s. Season's Greetings is more commonly used as a motto on winter season greeting cards, and in commercial advertisements, than as a spoken phrase. Artwork by Henry Sandham, published by L. Prang and Company, 1885. | |
