A blue frame shows a living room scene with four people sitting around a table in the center of the frame. Atop the table sits a lamp with a green shade and darker green/teal base. The four people are spread around the table doing activities like reading, knitting, and thinking. The carpet is a bright floral mixture and the walls are red and yellow with a fire raging. On the left side, a tan couch sits against the wall, a framed picture hangs from the wall, and a potted plant stands next to the couch. On the right side of the card stands Santa Claus. he leans over the right side of the frame. He wears a red cap and has long, blowing white hair and a beard. He smiles with red lips and white teeth and looks toward the left side of the postcard. His right arm is resting on the corner of the blue frame and holds the top of a large green bag full of toys. He wears a red coat with rolled cuffs and in his left hand he holds a large silver key. He wears black boots and brown pants and brown mittens.

Santa Claus
This postcard is oriented vertically and has a white background. On all sides is a white border. In the upper border it reads in all caps black lettering "NATIONAL SANTA CLAUS SERIES." Under this, taking up most of the postcard, is a green holly leaves and red holly berries frame. On each side of the frame in the center are criss-crossing green ribbons making an "X." Inside of this frame is the upper left portion of an American flag, showing the blue square with white stars and alternating red and white stripes around it. In front of the flag stands Santa Claus smoking a cigar. He stands on the left side of the frame and looks out with smiling eyes. On his head he wears a white top hat with a blue band with white stars on it, reflecting the flag behind him. He has thick, long white hair and a thick, long white beard with rosy cheeks and white eyebrows. He wears a black coat with a black gun belt diagonally crossing his chest from his left shoulder to his right hip. The belt has a gold buckle near the center of his chest. His two hands grab the lapels on his coat, and he wears tan mittens on them. Under the frame with this image on the left side it reads "1998," in the center it reads "UNITED STATES" and from the center to the right of the frame it reads "Copyright 1907 Ullman Mfg. Co. N.Y." Under this frame and typography, there is a white space for writing. In handwritten script, it reads "Will write more later. Baby is lovely will be six months old Saturday. Has 1 tooth."
