This vintage booklet contains A Visit From St. Nicholas by Clement C. Moore, presented as an 1849 facsimile edition published by Spalding & Shepard. The cover and interior feature ornate decorative borders and period-style typography, with a section titled “Santa Claus” and a statement noting this is a facsimile of the rare 1849 illustrated edition. 

The booklet is string-bound along the spine and printed on textured tan paper. Inside the front cover is a handwritten 1972 gift inscription. The pages show expected age toning and some waviness. The cover shows mild edge wear but remains intact and legible.
