Scope and content
Retha (Mrs. George F.) Kachlein gazes at her son, George F. III, who is helping her with the holiday decorations on December 21, 1942. The young boy has a pair of hammers in his hands. The mantel behind the Kachleins is festively adorned with greenery and candles. Mrs. Kachlein is holding a large wall decoration tied with leaves, similar to the one hanging on the mirror behind her son. The Kachlein family will be spending their first Christmas in nine years at home in Tacoma. They will be entertaining Mrs. Kachlein's parents, Dr. and Mrs. Grant S. Hicks, on Christmas Eve.
