Christmas Follies is the third album by the Salsoul Orchestra, comprised predominantly of Christmas songs.
The title of the album uses a version of Bookman distinguished by wonkily-swashed letter forms: Bookman Meola. The track listing is comparatively restrained, though – it’s a standard version of Bookman.
No designer is credited. The photograph is by Joel Brodsky.
The design was also used for a single release, featuring the same typefaces.

In 1981, a second volume followed. Christmas Jollies II has a red cover and a second mirrored woman.
