“Christmas

A song, a smile,

A laugh, a tear.

A glancing back throughout the year.

The worst forgotten – laid away,

The best to bless you on this day.”

Lovely Christmas sentiment in gold-tone framing of garland with red bows, topped with winter scene in gold, green, red and black.

“To Flo, from Maura[?] Xmas, 1917 – Wishing you many happy returns of the day. My sincere wish.”
