Description

This card is one in a collection of Christmas cards from the descendants of John James Audubon. This Christmas card features a rabbit sitting on a tree stump and playing the cornet for a bird perched on a branch at the left. The greeting reads, "This humble tribute, do not scorn it, I play a solo on the cornet / And this shall be the tune I play: 'Let Christmas be a happy day.'" The copyright information dates the image to 1888 and credits L. Prang & Co. of Boston.
