Christmas Card, late nineteenth century. Shows a sailing ship on a calm sea, the coastline visible in background and on the left of the image. Inset image surrounded on top left by floral decoration. Bears message ' A happy Christmas' and a poem: 'A bright and blessed Christmas Day / With echoes of the angels' song / And peace that cannot pass away/ And holy gladness calm and strong / And sweet heart carols flowing free / This is my Christmas wish for thee!'
