Santa Claus
Santa Claus, dressed in his red suit, is looking back over his shoulder at the bag of toys on his back. Inside, it holds a doll, teddy bear, drum, package and holly. The poem at the bottom is too faint to read.

Santa Claus
The card actually depicts two different views of Santa Claus. The main one is in the center of the card, showing Santa in a red coat and blue pants while carrying a tree, drum, and balloons. In the upper left there is a smaller circular inset also showing Santa Claus, although in a slightly different style of red suit, and carrying a tree. The bottom of the card reads "Christmas Wish / Oh, for a glimpse of the old home / And its dear ones, tried and true; / I'd be so happy if I could / Spend Christmas Day with you."

Father Christmas
Father Christmas hunches over due to the amount of gifts that are held in the sack on his back. In one hand is a walking stick. His coat is fur lined and a drum hangs from his belt. Inside the window, two girls watch happily, both dressed in fancy dresses with lace collars. The ground is covered in snow and a plant peeks out underneath the window. Along the bottom reads, "Frohliche Weihnachten." The photo's colors are faded, almost to the point that it is black and white.
