25 December 1941 – Queens, New York

This is a blue Christmas card – the cover has a young woman arranging flowers, with a gold ribbon tied through the card.

On the front of the card, it says:

To my Dear Sweetheart at Christmas

Inside the card, it says:

In the light of Christmas candles

It is your own smile I see

And I cherish every memory

Which your dearness brings to me….

By the merry Christmas candles

I will make this wish sincere:

May joy light the world at Christmas

Just for you….. My Sweetheart Dear!

Handwritten underneath the poem:

To the Sweetest Sweetheart of them all

From Larry with Love
