Father Christmas with Toys by Fence

Title

Father Christmas with Toys by Fence

Description

Father Christmas is shown torso up behind a snow-capped white fence. He is wearing a brown fur coat and hat. Over his left shoulder he carries a patched sack full of toys like a drum and doll. Behind him to the left is a snow-covered cluster of houses. The card is bordered by holly leaves and berries and a garland of holly winds around the fence. "A Merry Christmas" at the bottom is almost lost in the pattern.
