Title

Father Christmas with Team of Goats

Description

The card's overall coloring is black and white, with only a little evidence of some color like red, burgundy, and dark green. In the foreground, a team of two white goats, driven by an elf, pull a toy sleigh. Further back, Father Christmas is walking in front of a wall with a cane in his right hand and basket of toys on his back. On top of the wall, among the branches of an over-leaning evergreen, are four boys looking down and pointing at Father Christmas. The bottom fourth of the card is blank save for the greeting "Froeliche Weihnachten!" and a few other words.
