The cachet features a pixelated/computer-generated style Christmas tree rendered in black ink, decorated with ornaments, a star topper, and surrounded by wrapped gift boxes at the base. The text 'Happy Holidays' appears in bold dark lettering at the bottom right of the cachet, with 'TECHNICAL' printed in the upper left corner. The stamp is a 29-cent USA 'Greetings' issue depicting a red antique fire engine/pumper wagon in red and gold. The postmark is a standard machine cancellation from Kansas City, MO dated October 22, 1992.

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