The cachet features a black-and-white pen-and-ink style Christmas tree decorated with ornaments and topped with a star, with wrapped gift boxes beneath it, and 'Happy Holidays' printed in bold black text at the bottom right. The word 'TECHNICAL' appears in the upper left corner identifying the cachet maker. The stamp is a 29-cent USA 'Greetings' stamp depicting a colorful antique toy locomotive in red, green, and black on a cream background. The circular hand-applied postmark reads 'NEW YORK, NY / OCT 28 / 1992 / 10199' with a machine cancel reading 'FIRST DAY OF ISSUE'.

(The automatic summaries sometimes misidentify the postmark as part of the cachet artwork.)
