Fröhliche Weihnachten!

Merry Christmas, Indeed.

Thanks so much to an anonymous Dachshundist for sending in a copy of this great early 1900s German postcard from their personal collection! 

(click any image to enlarge)

Can anyone interpret the note?

    The message says: "Quite merry Christmas and a happy new year wishes with best regards Family Kreuz/Krenz(?)".
    To all Dachshundists, our hosts Maggie and Joey and their beloved humans a very merry Christmas and a great new year. Thank you for sharing your dachshund-love with all of us. Snowy greetings from the north of Germany, Ani & Tobi

    From Ani & Tobi: I forgot to add that this card is from Vienna, Austria, stamped with an austrian stamp, but the language and the writing ist the same. For anyone who wants to know more about it, please have a look at: http://www.suetterlinschrift.de/Englisch/Sutterlin.htm
    A big woof to all!
