Father Christmas Talking to Children
Description
The card's center scene depicts Father Christmas, dressed in a long red hooded coat, with a bag of toys and holly on his back and leaning forward on a walking stick to talk to two children. The taller, a boy in black and a red hat, is standing behind the shorter girl, who is dressed in a white coat and hat with pink trim. The background is a dark forest. The card's border is cream with a holly decoration at the bottom. "May the Chimes of Christmas bring Joy to your Heart" is printed at the top, and "Christmas Greetings" at the bottom.
