No, the ones that were given away with the books on the PA store were the "Procession of Balthazar", "Floating Mosque", and "Scent on the Wind" shown on here. Series 1 were also the ones given away for the previous art contests.

I just got 1 in the mail today. I have been playing since GW came out. It's the first Christmas card I have received from them. My son is very jealous right now.

Why am I surprised that I didn't get one. Oh well maybe next year (or the year after or even 2020)...

Didn't they close down the UK offices with the NCsoft West restructuring? I think the rest of the world is so used to getting passed over by Anet it's just expected we'll miss out.

I like in the UK and I got one. This morning infact. Not nearly as many signatures as the rest of your pics. But oh well, cheers Anet

I'm really glad that people are enjoying them. :-) This is one of the larger projects the community department has to undertake each year, so we're always thrilled when we receive emails, IMs, PMs, and see posts from people who got a smile from the card. I'm also glad that the cards are arriving safely. :-) Sometimes you never know with postal mail.
A few notes:
- The cards are not only sent to US recipients, but since they were mailed at around the same time, naturally the US destinations will get the cards first because they don't have as far to travel as non-US locations.
- There are more than 3 art postcards. Each holiday card included one randomly selected art postcard. Each one is hand signed by the artist who created that piece of art.
- All of the greeting cards are hand signed, and everyone in the company signed as many cards as they could. This is why almost every single card is unique in terms of whose signature are on there. There were a few big deadlines in the studio at the end of November, so unfortunately, not everyone had time to sign as many as the probably wanted to. But they did their best. :-)

Gratz to the people who received one and gratz to Anet for signing and sending them out each year. I really like the concept.
Playing since release, but didn't get one yet. I'm not sure they have my address, but I do remember participating in the 'boss names' contest (Surrow's Furnace), where we had to fill in our address if I remember correctly. They can't send a card to everyone ofcourse and there's always next year.
However, a friend was so kind I could use her credit card to buy extra characters on my account in the past. If and just 'if' they would have send me a card, I hope it doesn't end in my friend's mailbox, because she prolly would not know what it is and throw it away thinking it's an ad or something. The thought alone...
