RARE Vtg 28 Plush Santa 30/40s. Handpainted Molded Fabric Mask. Mohair. Germany
Vtg 30/40s 28 Plush Santa Handpainted Molded Fabric Mask Face Mohair Beard and hair. Has been stored in a Cedar Chest for many years. Not sure of the exact year it was made but I know for sure it was earlier than the 50s. Face is hand-painted molded cloth over a stuffed fabric head. Stuffing is hard and compressed.
This Santa was possibly originally used as a retail store display. His body has a bendable wire frame inside the arms and legs. The boots are plush with a canvas bottom.
