Santas on Parade

Tis the season, so I thought I'd share some of my Christmas finds this past year.  Specifically Santa figures.  I'll admit it, I'm a sucker for the fat, bearded, jolly one, and I don't mean Orson Welles.  Most of these figures are plastic from Japan or Hong Kong dating from the late 1960's to 1970's.  These were all bought for $1 or less.

Santa's pushing a cart of ornaments or fruit.  Not sure which.

This seems to be a popular pose

This Santa switched it up a little.

Skating Santa

Santa in his sleigh being pulled by 8, er, 4 not so tiny reindeer.

Santa switched to a horseless carriage some time at the turn of the last century

And finally, not so much a figure as a standee.
