A Favorite Santa
I have a small collection of Santa Clauses and this is one of my favorites. It is called a 20th Century Claus and personifies the traditional American Santa. I love his bobby socks and saddle shoes that were so popular in the 50's. And be sure to see what he is gifting. Television set, '57 Chevy, record, Cola, and a blonde possible Marilyn Monroe doll!
I wish all of my activerain friends a happy holiday season!!
Hello Barbara and I wish I had that 57 Chevy now, it would be a a major treasure.

That was one beloved car then and now!
I found this by Googling the image.
1950’s SANTA CLAUS Christmas Collectibles 20th Century Midwest of Cannon Falls. Its in excellent condition with tag in the bottom. It says Joann Christmas and there is date which is unreadable.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Thanks for the search, Don. How much was it worth? I have the original box with it!
I wish you a very merry Christmas as well. And saddle shoes were also worn in the 60s/70s!

Thank you. I wore them too.
Hello Barbara... Happy Christmas to you and yours. Loved this Santa... maybe because I actually wore saddle shoes like those back in the 50's! And our first TV looked just like that one!

So did I....and nearly everybody did wear them.
Hello, Happy Winter Solstice and Merry Christmas, Barbara - there is no shortage of reminders that this season has room for sentimentality.
