Title: Merry Christmas

[printed verse]
When you light your Christmas candles
Know that I will light mine too;
And across the starlit distance
My best wishes go to you.

Description:Early twentieth century Christmas card depicting two people flying a two-seat, open cockpit, fixed-wing, single-engine, propeller-driven biplane with a green-leaf bunting (?) hanging over the fuselage of the plane and the copilot dropping leaves of the bunting as the plane flies over a village. Printed in the United States, this card is undated. (Editor's note: Although this card has no date, the two-seat single-engine biplane, whose design came out of World War I, was produced into the late 1930s as a trainer for the military, thus the Coverage (Time Period) of 1921-1940.)
