Christmas Trivia
Did You Know:
Christmas Carols were banned by Oliver Cromwell, in England between 1649 and 1660. Cromwell thought that Christmas should be a very solemn day so he banned carols and parties. The only celebration was by a sermon and a prayer service.
Did You Also Know:
In 1843, the first Christmas card was printed in England for Sir Henry Cole. He was busy man who wanted to save time writing his own Christmas letters, but was also interested in encouraging the expansion of the postal system. 1000 copies of the card were sold at one shilling each. It was not until the 1860s that the production of cards accelerated, with cheaper printing methods. Then in 1870, the Post Office introduced a half penny stamp for sending cards.
In Switzerland during the Reformation, all instrumental and choral music was banned from churches. In Germany, disapproval of carols resulted in some being converted into hymns.
