Carlton is an unknown this year in the marketplace because it is really a band new company. It used to be called Drawing Board, and it is wholly-owned by American Greetings. However, when they changed the name this year, they created an entirely new line of cards which we found to be among the best of the traditionals.
Some of our favorite cards for this season are from Carlton (as well as some of the best holiday gift wrap). Their prices range from the very inexpensive to the very expensive, depending on what your local card and gift store has selected.
Carlton Cards may be hard to find in your area. You have to ask. Again, traditional Hallmark stores don't carry this line. Well worth the search.
