Title

Father Christmas and Children Pictured on Bell

Description

The central image of the card is a bell, on which is printed a scene of Father Christmas greeting two children. He is in a long red robe with a bag, satchel and walking stick; the taller child is a girl dressed in blue with a hat, and the younger is a boy in brown with a red cap. They stand in a snowy yard with a church behind them to the right. The bell itself is bordered in holly, with a small house in the bottom left corner. "A Happy Christmastide" is barely visible along the bottom and looks to be in raised letters.
