Title

Three Children Wait for Christmas

Description

Three children wait behind a door for Christmas and Santa to arrive. All three wear white nightclothes. The older girl has her brown hair in ties and holds a red candle while shushing the other two. The blonde boy is tugging on the gown of the blonde-haired girl crawling toward the door crack. Barely visible beyond the door is a shadowed silhouette of a man against the red wall. "A Christmas Greeting" is printed on the door across the top, and below the children is the caption "Wonder what funny man / that's at the door - / Don't you know SANTY? / He's been here before."
