Additional Details:
A young child, bundled in a coat and hat, sits in an umbrella-shaped sleigh being pulled through the snow. A large gift box with a holly sprig is next to the child. Several birds fly above, and a snow-covered house is visible in the distance. The front features a Christmas poem: "I thought I would bring you my love thro' the sky, But the bundle's so big that my air-ship won't fly, So I'll just wait for Santa to come round this way And take it to you in his old-fashioned sleigh."
