Title

Santa Claus's Bag of Gifts

Description

This postcard features Santa Claus upon a tan background. His back is facing the viewer of the image and his bag of gifts is the most prominent object featured on the postcard. The bag is overflowing with toys for children such as a doll, a trumpet, and a toy house. There is writing on the bag that says, "Hang your stocking up for me, and I'll fill it to the knee; I will give what is your due, I know it as well as you: I know you've tried to be real good and always did the best you could; now if your stocking holds no more, I'll put the rest right on the floor. Yours truly, Santa Claus". There is also a circle of holly surrounding Santa Claus.
