See separate listing for the other. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChalkware figures like this were popular in the 1940s and 1950s and were often sold in dime stores, gift shops, and at carnivals and fairs. Their hand-painted finishes and charming folk-art character have made them enduring holiday collectibles. Santa's rosy cheeks and expression make me think someone left him spiked egg nog!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI chose him for his character rather than perfection. The wear on this Santa is part of the story, a reminder that he has already brightened many a Christmas season. He is very festive with minor imperfections that come with age and decades of lovingly decorating for Christmas. Fantastic on a mantel or on top of kitchen cupboard with greenery or other holiday decor.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Moth \u0026 Rust Printworks (div. of Firefly Outfitters LLC)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51036908814503,"sku":"Santa 1 Bank","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/9848\/7207\/files\/santabank1.jpg?v=1785335652","url":"https:\/\/mothandrustprintworks.com\/products\/vintage-chalkware-jolly-santa-bank-1","provider":"Moth \u0026 Rust Printworks (div. of Firefly Outfitters LLC)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
