Title

Santa Claus Decorates a Christmas Tree Postcard

Description

This postcard is oriented vertically and shows a Santa Claus wearing a red robe and hat decorating a small Christmas tree. He stands on the left side of the card so that his right side faces toward the viewer. Both of his hands reach above his head to place a gold ornament onto a small Christmas tree which stands on a table. The table is covered with a white tablecloth and is surrounded by toys, fruit, and decorations around the base of the tree. On the white tablecloth it reads in gold, swirling script, "A Merry Christmas." In the background is a window with lace and heavier green drapes. On the carpeted floor behind Santa Claus sits a grey bag with toys.
