In the foreground of the Christmas card, a band of World War II-era soldiers, wearing uniforms with playful nods to 1940s military attire—think over-sized boots, comically large hats, and medals with symbols of musical notes—are gathered around a small, makeshift stage. At the center of this scene is a lively Nazi soldier, now reimagined as a jazz-loving saxophonist, passionately playing a tune that twists into whimsical musical notes, floating like snowflakes in the air. The other soldiers, instead of traditional weapons, carry musical instruments; one has a drum strapped to his back while another holds a trombone with exaggerated length, extending off the card's edge.

In the background, a quaint village scene, akin to a Maxfield Parrish painting, is dusted with snow, complete with cozy, smoke-billowing chimneys and windows glowing warmly. A vintage gramophone is strategically placed on a snow-covered crate, with a vinyl record spinning merrily, hinting at the soldiers' impromptu band practice. Flanking the stage, a few whimsical woodland creatures dressed in tiny military hats—a nod to Beatrix Potter—are entranced by the music. On the side, a cheeky raccoon tries to mimic the soldiers by beating a pair of makeshift drums using twigs.

To complete the scene, a sprightly Edward Gorey-style Christmas tree stands in one corner, decorated with baubles resembling tiny army helmets and musical notes, its star adorned with a small peace symbol, giving the card a harmonious twist. Snow gently falls across the scene, softening the edges and creating a magical, almost dreamlike quality, inviting the viewer to join this unique holiday celebration of music and camaraderie.
