A snowy winter landscape with tall bare trees and a small green stream or thawed patch appears beside the printed greeting "Merry Christmas" and a short verse that begins "Straight from my heart to you." The verse closes with a wish to meet again.
The card was postmarked in New York on Christmas Eve 1919. Emma's note to Delia Nichols mixes holiday wishes with family news about Johnnie and a planned Christmas visit, a typical use of the holiday postcard for a quick greeting and personal update.
