 Other versions of the same image

Although published by Blum & Degen, the image was supplied by Perkins, Son & Venimore (PS&V), who later published it as a postcard in their own right. This version was also available with an overprinting carrying the words ‘Christmas Greetings’. These were printed at the bottom and towards the centre in red and in a different font to the caption.
