When Hallmark launched Shoebox in 1986, nobody knew that the crabby
character gracing the covers of a few Shoebox cards would become a
celebrity. But it didn't take long to see that Maxine's irreverent quips
about aging, the workplace, retirement, political correctness, and of course
sex (or the lack of it) had struck a cord.
Since then, Americans have purchased more than 220 million Maxine greeting
cards, and Maxine is still the first and only greeting card character to
move from the card isle into popular culture.
Perpetually one of Hallmark's top-performing characters, today Maxine has
her own books, comic strip, calendars, and website.
The address (as you probably could have guessed) is... www.maxine.com
Enjoy!
