Santa Claus Directs Reindeer
Title
Santa Claus Directs Reindeer
Description
Santa Claus is wearing a red suit and appears to be addressing his two reindeer. One is rearing its head while the other stands quietly. In front of them is a blue sleigh decorated with holly and the words "A Merry Christmas". The background of the card shows a snowy hill with trees and a house; the full moon illuminates the scene. Printed at the bottom is a poem, and although some of it is obscured it appears to read: "[Unknown] my Deers we're off for a dash, / [Around] the world we must go like a flash: / [Unknown words] Heart that comes in sight / [Unknown words] happy this Christmas Night."
