The tradition of the "Hallmark Holiday" started with Mother's Day, which was a scheme to sell greeting cards and flowers. And guilt.
Hallmark made the cards. They didn't buy them. They may have mined the guilt, but I suspect it was already there just waiting for the right shovel. After all, a card and a stamp is pretty easy penance.
