The artwork in the image is a linoleum block print by the renowned Oklahoma artist Derald Swineford (1908–1990). Dated "73" in the signature, this piece is part of a long-standing tradition where Swineford created original block prints to send to close friends as Christmas cards, a practice he maintained from 1940 through the early 1980s.
