Santa Claus Watches Family Christmas through Keyhole
Title
Santa Claus Watches Family Christmas through Keyhole
Description
The main scene of the card is printed as if to view through an old-fashioned keyhole. Inside the scene, a Christmas Party is taking place. A man holds a small child while a blond-haired woman places a red cone hat on its head. Another woman offers the child a Christmas favor. Two other women, one wearing a blue party hat, are pulling apart a firecracker. Behind them is a decorated three. Around the keyhole scene is evidence of Santa's visit. Santa Claus himself and two reindeer are shown on the left side of the card, along with a couple toys. The right side shows a chimney, tree, and other toys - a rifle, ark, and train. The bottom reads "Wishing You many Christmas Joys".
