The Contemplation of Father Christmas
Description
The majority of this postcard features a tan background made of black floral outlines. In the middle of the image sits an oval with Father Christmas standing in the middle of it. He is dressed in a long red robe and cap, carries an overflowing bag of toys on his back, and holds a walking stick in his right palm. He is gazing off into the distance, as if in deep contemplation. Features the caption, "Sincere wishes for a bright and merry Christmas".
