Pictorial end papers with a loose insert of the publisher's initial advertising flyer for this book and "Jesse ben David" by Ludlow. Gold decoration on front is mildly rubbed and the ivory cloth shows general but mild soiling. With coloured frontis (tissue protector is missing) and many b/w drawings serving as chapter introductions and closings. The text margins are illuminated with a pale green motif consisting of a head panel with sides and tail being a vine/ribbon and candle design. It is worth reading the publisher's advertising copy about the book; "A story of Christmas of today bathed in the spirit of 'good will to men. ' Mr. Knowles has a way of making us feel that way down deep there is a tender heart in the most crusty of humans. One looks up from these pages with misty eyes but sunshine all around. The people in this story mught have lived next door to any one; however as the story goes, they lived in the country of the White Christmas. "
