Retirement

Retirement cards want a specific tone — congratulatory but knowing, usually with a joke about naps. This collection covers sincere, humorous and teacher-retirement designs.

Fishing, golf, beaches and a fair amount of gentle mockery about no longer setting an alarm. Deeply etched red rubber, cling-mounted, made in the USA.

Not sure what to say? Our guide to 48 retirement card sentiments has heartfelt and funny wishes ready to borrow.
