These Santa cards are creepy!
Agree. Some quite ghoulish.
Is that Brandon in the last one at the Window..... :):):)
The first one isn’t too bad, but Santa looks a little “tubby” for that chimney!
The rest of them .... scary! There’s not much talk these days about getting a lump of coal in your stocking if you’re ‘naughty’, but from those cards, I can see where kids would be afraid of “scary” Santa & the threat of a lump of coal!
Just came in from sledging the ice out of the bird bath & refilling with warm water ... I can usually turn the pan over & ‘stomp’ the ice out, but the pan is virtually freezing solid in these temps. I use a black rubber shallow (about 4 inches deep) horse feed pan so I can stomp on it or sledge to get rid of the ice without breaking the pan. I put a brick in it so if a small bird does go in, they have something to climb on to get out. In warmer weather, the crows like to get in and really take a bath - water flies everywhere! The pan sits on an overturned trash can to give it some height and it’s located next to a board fence and a redbud tree. The birds love it - it’s the “happening place” in the yard.
Those RPPCs (Real People Postcards) with children and Santas are valuable, at least compared to artist renderings. Nothing like the Halloween ones, though.
