Description

Father Christmas stands to the right of the card; he is wearing a long red robe, carrying a tree over his right shoulder, and holding a walking stick in his left hand. Toys, including dolls and a trumpet, hang from his belt. He is wearing a cone-shaped white hat and has a bushy white mustache and beard. To the right, an older woman holds a chalkboard over her head and opens her mouth to yell at the blond boy playing with a sword and brunette girl playing with her doll. "A Merry Christmas" is printed in the upper left.
