Coca-Cola Santa Classic Edition 1948 Hospitality Doll 1999 Mattel Item No. 23288

This delightful Coca-Cola Santa Doll was inspired by a painting by Haddon Sundblom, the renowned illustrator who painted for The Coca-Cola Company's holiday ads beginning in 1931 and for thirty years thereafter. His concept of Santa Claus - robust and round, aglow with warmth and kindness, and lavishly dressed in brilliant red and white fur - would soon become one of the most enduring images of all time. Inspired by the 1948 Hospitality painting, this uniquely designed Coca-Cola Santa Doll pauses to enjoy a refreshing glass of Coca-Cola, which he holds in his hand.

He is holding a Coke and wears a red velvety suit trimmed with white faux fur, and brown, suede-like gloves, belt and boots. As in the original painting, a sprig of holly and berries decorate his red velvety hat trimmed in faux fur. He carries a suede-like bag with a big red strap which is decorated with little bells. The bag contains adorable toys for good little girls and boys.
