The card features a white, pink, and blue-robed Mary, holding the baby Jesus. Joseph is beside them, carrying a walking stick and looking out over the landscape to the right of the card while shading his eyes. Behind them is a donkey. The background is a sunset or sunrise scene with hills, grass, and a palm tree. "A Happy Christmastide" is printed in the upper right, and at the bottom, "God with us. / I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee."
