Annotation — Christmas Songs
Christmas songs - reference to Vietnam on the back of the picture sleeve. "This modern sleigh is not only a joy to choir girls as Santa steps out but us a joy to the boys in Vietnam when help comes when peace is absent. This modern sleigh will not bring Santa to the boys in Vietnam but it will bring a gift from home and the memory of Christmas tide and carols"
Annotation by Justin A. Brummer
