A child in a winter hat stands holding a Christmas tree in one arm and a wrapped gift in the other, a pairing that signals the holiday at a glance. Images like this became common in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when holiday cards, magazines and advertising often used children to suggest home, generosity and the pleasures of the season. The record files the picture under tobacco, which suggests it may have been used in tobacco advertising or sent out as a seasonal greeting by a tobacco firm, though the record does not say which. That link is worth noting when you look at how sellers of consumer goods borrowed familiar holiday scenes.
