The major colors would include: red background, white, gold and black. St. Nicholas is holding a bag of goodies with apples in his left hand while his right hand is holding a staff. Behind him are two krampus, an adult size and a child size. They both have horns. tongues out and holding branches with gold ribbon holding the branches together. They are all in the center of the post card (vertical). There is a saying on the front that says, "fur's schlimme gibt's vom krampus Strafe, St. Nikolaus behnt das brave. Grub vom Nikolo!"
