DEMPSEY & CARROLL’S ANNUAL PRE-SEASON HOLIDAY SPECIAL: 15% OFF PERSONALIZED HOLIDAY ORDERS, SEPTEMBER 1-30, 2006

NEW YORK September, 2006 Although the holiday season always seems to come too quickly, it pays to order personalized holiday cards well in advance. That’s why the annual Dempsey & Carroll Pre-Season Holiday Special rewards customers for starting early.

“Engraving takes a little longer than flat printing, it’s just the nature of the craft,” says Lauren Marrus, president of Dempsey & Carroll. ‘It’s worth the wait because the cards are gorgeous and elaborately detailed. And, it pays to think ahead. It gives the customer plenty of time to choose a typestyle and motif, make changes to the proof if necessary, and address all the envelopes once the cards arrive. The customers who take advantage of our pre-season special offer tell us that getting the holiday cards taken care of in early autumn allows them to better enjoy the holiday season. With so many parties, benefits and other events to attend at that time of year, people do not want to be preoccupied with getting their holiday cards out on time.”

The pre-season special is 15% off any personalized holiday order and is valid from September 1st through September 30th 2006. In addition to the classic designs that helped the company achieve its excellent reputation, Dempsey & Carroll is pleased to offer several new designs for this holiday season.
