   Retail outlets that specialize in the sale of greeting cards are ... classified in this industry. Not classified with other stationery products, greeting cards are a cornerstone of the gift and souvenir shop retail industry. The greeting card industry diversified considerably since its beginnings in the 19th century. Mass-produced Christmas cards were first sold in England by Sir Henry Cole in the 1840s, and Louis Prang introduced such cards to the United States not long afterwards.

Souvenir stores in tourist destinations often carried greeting cards that targeted travelers.

10. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
    Post-script: Hitchhiker's was originally intended for distribution under The Walt Disney Company's Touchstone Pictures branch. In late 2004, it was heralded to "Walt Disney Pictures." Then, in early 2005, it was ushered back to Touchstone. While reasons behind the moves have never been clear, the film is rated "PG" and outside of the occasional off-color reference (that young viewers won't notice or understand anyway), it is perfectly fine for family audiences. Its content seems less objectionable than last year's blockbuster National Treasure and the Disney Store seems to be treating this like any other "Disney" film by offering lithographs with pre-orders. Perhaps one day, Disney may embrace it as they have done for Touchstone films like The Nightmare Before Christmas and Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which they currently associate with the "Disney" name.
