The 1937 corporate Christmas card was actually two cards. The larger greeting card contained a tipped-in color illustration on the inside - this art was created by the great Swedish artist Gustaf Tenggren and was also used on the original release poster. The image features the Prince and the Hunstman, which were rarely used in promotional material. Tenggren's Dwarfs also have an "old world" look to them.
The 1937 card also contained a smaller card featuring Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Pluto.
The first card is courtesy my friend Dennis Books, while the second resides in my own collection.
