Beaming Boy with Christmas Tree, Lionel Train, Diversely Populated Putz Village folky candleholders Hand-sewn of linenHe looks like the cat who swallowed the canary, but I think it is just pure Christmas bliss.

I just love him popping up from his world of holiday delight to be captured in the frame, and am happy every time I look at him. 3 7 16" x 2 1 2", good condition. c. 1950s or so I believe.
