Father Christmas
A sketched Father Christmas faces right smoking a pipe. He is dressed in a long red coat with white fur trim and a matching hat. By his feet are a basket and a sac of gifts, and his pocket is filled with gifts, as well. Both his hands are raised to his mouth to smoke the pipe. There is a red line framing the entire postcard, and the bottom right reads, "A Very Merry Xmas."
