Santa took time to visit Billy Reuter (left) [51-2935_003], who was sick in bed, and deliver a present to him. Little Susan McManus is sitting on his knee. Susan is shown (centre) [51-2935_002] with a chum excitedly opening their gifts. At right [51-2935_004] Santa distributes presents to the children amid utter confusion."

Image of a crouched Santa Claus handing out gifts to a child as others look on. More children are visible in the background excitedly looking at gifts and talk with each other in front of a partially visible Christmas tree.
