DescriptionChristmas card consisting of a colored lithograph on cardstock. The print features an image of flowers, with the heads of children in each bud. Text along the bottom of the card reads: "A happy Christmas." Printed on the verso is a poem: "Where little feet run / Where shine little eyes / They make their own sun / They bring their own skies! / Old Chirstmas for such / Is specially made / rewed at their touch / He never can fade. / Like bird and like bee / Sing on, little heart! / And never from thee / May Christmas depart! / Copyright Eden Hooper"
