A Happy New Year, 1879

A Victorian-era New Year calling card with an unusual rhomboid shape. Cards like this typically have just one name, and I'm not sure why this one lists the names of five individuals.

 

Typefaces: Initials from Italian Black with capitals from a wide Celtic ("Happy New Year"); Venetian (names).

 

Thanks go to Florian Hardwig for identifying these typefaces over on Fonts in Use.
