This is a rare Franklin Simon Department store Christmas lithographic poster with an image after a James Thurber cartoon drawing of a man in a chair with his dog at his feet. The drawing was done in Thurber's typical minimalist style of cartoons. It depicts an image of a seated man leaning over his dog who has his head in the man's lap communicating a feel good image of complete love between the two. Thurber's signature "Th." is present in the plate below the man's chair. The inscription reads: "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen let nothing dismay you today. Just have a merry and marvelous Christmas and the happiest of New Years. Franklin Simon"
The lithograph is printed on a tan paper and is presented in a black wood frame with a light grey mat. There is a horizontal fold in the upper third and mild wrinkling in the corners. There are small frame abrasions and scratches.
