Father Christmas and the Doll
Title
Father Christmas and the Doll
Description
This is a simple postcard featuring Father Christmas, a young girl, and a doll against a beige background. The girl has fair hair and is dressed in a white nightgown while Father Christmas is wearing his trademark red robe. He sports a light blue cap in lieu of the usual red. The girl has opened a door to her living room to find Father Christmas. He is holding out a doll in a white dress that greatly resembles the girl. There is a wreath in the background and a caption that says, "I could not forget you if I tried and I am not going to try. Merry Christmas".
