A Little Golden Book from 1949, with illustrations by Corinne Malvern:
Another LGB, this one with Eloise Wilkin's adorable children, from 1955:

"Happy Christmas To All And To All A Good Night!"

Merry Christmas to you! I love Santa's green mittens on the first book. Very nice, and they look warm. Well, off to make my pies. I decided on pumpkin, apple and cranberry/walnut. See you soon. Love T
