Question: When were the first commercial Christmas cards sold in the city setting A Stranger in the district in which Adam Worth leased a residence?

In England, Worth and his associates bought Western Lodge at Clapham Common. He formed his own criminal network and organized major robberies and burglaries through several intermediaries. Those who worked in his schemes never knew his name. He also leased an apartment in Mayfair and joined high society. He insisted that his subordinates not use violence. <SEP> two to four people can play at a time as individuals, or, six or more players in teams (no more than three partnerships). the object of the game is to be the first player or team to play out their entire stock pile (s). the player with the middle age goes first. each player is dealt 30 cards for their pile with only the top card visible, and a hand of five cards, and the remaining cards are placed face down to create a common draw pile. the shared play area allows up to four build piles, which must be started using either a ``1 ''card or a skip - bo, and each player also has up to four personal discard piles. each turn the active player draws until they have five cards in hand, though there are cases of not drawing more cards to equal five cards, instead doing a draw of a certain number of cards. they must play either the next card in sequential order or a wild skip - bo card, using either cards in hand, the top card of their stock pile, or the top card of any of their four discard piles. if the player can play all five cards from their hand, they draw five more and continue playing. when no more plays are available, the player discards one card to either an empty discard pile or on top of an existing one and play passes to the next player. when a build pile reaches 12, it is removed from the board and that space becomes empty for another pile to be started; play continues until one player has played their final start card. <SEP> the deck consists of 162 cards, twelve each of the numbers 1 through 12 and eighteen ``skip - bo ''wild cards which may be played as any number. alternatively, the 162 cards could be three regular decks of playing cards, including the jokers, with ace to queen corresponding to 1 to 12 and the kings and jokers corresponding to the skip - bo cards. before 1980, the commercial game consisted of four decks of regular playing cards with eight skip - bo cards replacing the standard two jokers in each deck. in addition, the aces, twos and threes in the fourth deck were marked skip - bo. the remainder of the fourth deck was discarded. <SEP> The central picture showed three generations of a family raising a toast to the card's recipient: on either side were scenes of charity, with food and clothing being given to the poor. Allegedly the image of the family drinking wine together proved controversial, but the idea was shrewd: Cole had helped introduce the Penny Post three years earlier. The next cards were commissioned by Sir Henry Cole and illustrated by John Callcott Horsley in London on 1st May 1843. Two batches totaling 2,050 cards were printed and sold that year for a shilling each. <SEP> A Stranger in Mayfair, by Charles Finch, is a mystery set in Mayfair and surrounding neighborhoods in London, England during the Victorian era. It is the fourth novel in the Charles Lenox series.
