Scope and Content

A tryptic Christmas card, 3.75" x 7.5" unfolded, with three separate pictures of young girls. Each girl has a "stand" beneath them, so the card could be cut into three separate cards. Above the girls is a garland with yellow bows and blue for-get-me nots. the card folds, and on the front is a horseshoe of flowers and printed with "With all Good Wishes." The girl in the center is wearing a white jumpsuit that looks like a jester's outfit. She has a cone-shaped hat and is playing a lute. The girl in the center is wearing a white outfit and Mary-Jane shoes and is carrying an Oriental-type paper umbrella and two dolls. The girl on the right is wearing a green dress with puffed sleeves and is carrying a jump rope. Each of the three "stands" contain a portion of the greeting: "Three little Christmas children gay - That's one to dance and one to play - and one my Christmas wish to say."
