The baby Jesus lays in a straw-bedded manger. Mary, dressed in red and dark blue with a golden head wrap and halo, is either picking him up from the manger or laying him down. Joseph, in deep red and green with a golden halo as well, stands over them. The wooden wall of the stable is behind them and in the distance hills, a star, and a palm tree are visible. "Christmas Greetings" is printed at the bottom.

Nativity in Black and White
Roseliep Christmas Postcard Collection
Roseliep, Raymond
Christmas Postcards
The card depicts, in black and white, a stable scene of Joseph and Mary gazing upon the newborn baby Jesus in a manger. Stylistically, it looks as if statues were photographed. The print beneath reads "Wie danken die, Herr Jesu Christ, / daB du ein Kind geworden bist, / und hergekommen uns zu gut, / uns mitgebracht dein himmlisch Gut. / Gesegnete Weihnacht / und alles Gut zum neuen Jahr!" The general meaning is a thank-you to Jesus for coming as a newborn, wishing the receiver a blessed Christmas and New Year.
