Father Christmas Peers Out Window

Title

Father Christmas Peers Out Window

Description

The card is in black and white; Father Christmas, dressed in a dark hooded robe with white hair and beard creeping out, gazes out an open window. The window is set in a stone wall, and has the wooden shutter open, with snowy evergreen bushes growing up to the sill. Father Christmas is dangling a toy joker doll over the ledge by a string. The top of the card reads "At Joyous Christmastide. / When the snow is covering all / Father Christmas pays a call."
