At the top is a color drawing of Santa Claus next to his reindeer-drawn sled. Santa stands at the right on the snow-covered ground while a team of four reindeer stand hitched to the sled at the left. Three elves pack bags, which are on the sled, with toys while many more elves with toys exit Santa's Toy Shop which is at the left of the back. On the back is a color drawing of Santa, Mrs. Claus, and many elves facing a holiday greeting from the furniture company which is projected on a wall. Inside are several holiday stories and poetry for children with titles like, "The Christmas Stocking" and "The Little Pine Tree." Also included are a cut-out Christmas card and drawings for coloring. With some abrasions, creases, and surface soiling, the artifact is in fair condition.Lexicon
