Description
Father Christmas is wearing a long hooded red robe and carrying a walking stick in his right hand. On his back he carries a blue bag and a basket filled with toys. Behind him, there is a wall over which four children watch him. The furthest left is a blonde, then a brunette, then a larger brunette boy waving his cap, and finally a blonde girl dressed in lavender. "A Merry Christmas" is printed within a holly border at the bottom. The entire card is bordered by dense holly with bells and ribbons.
