Book excerpt: The end of the 19th and the early 20th century were a rich time for postcard publishing. Hundreds of millions of designs were issued, and billions sent through the million. Almost every subject was explored, holidays - of course - being a favorite occasion on which to mail a card, and Christmas prime among those holidays. The primacy of the postcard meshed neatly with the growth of Christmas, as we know it, as a holiday both in the U.S. and U.K. Santa Claus, Father Christmas, or St. Nick, was naturally a favorite subject for postcard artists. The vintage postcards we've selected from our collection for The Santa Claus Postcard Book show Santa in his great variety. His garments may be blue or purple, green, or even red. He may come by train, sled, blimp, bus, rocking horse, or on skates. He brings gifts to the children the world over, and he is -always - our beloved Santa Claus.

Download or read book The Book of Santa Claus written by Vicky Howard and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2005-08 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You don't have to be a child to appreciate the magic within The Book of Santa Claus. As author Vicky Howard notes, "We can never outgrow the anticipation of a visit from Santa Claus. He is a magical figure, drawn from the legends, history, and folklore of many countries."The legend of Santa Claus began in America in 1822 with Clement C. Moore's poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas." This enduring poem, which begins with the now-classic line "'Twas the night before Christmas," paints a vivid picture of St. Nick and his miniature sleigh pulled by eight tiny reindeer. Illustrated for the first time by Thomas Nast for Harper's Weekly in 1863, this famous depiction became an inspiration for much of the detailed Victorian art captured in The Book of Santa Claus. The rich compilation celebrates Santa Claus through the beautiful illustrations from century-old postcards from that era's preeminent commercial artists, such as Frances Brundage and Ellen Clapsaddle. Vicky Howard's personal collection of art from the "Golden Age of Postcards" is coupled with poems on the Christmas joy of Kris Kringle. This joyful miniature edition is perfect for a finishing touch to any gift basket, as a hostess gift, or for your own treasured keepsake.

Book excerpt: "Santa Claus has come in many guises as these antique Christmas cards reveal," writes Aggie Gilmore in her introduction to this unique collection of cards from around around the world. Santa has worn yellow. He has worn green. He has worn purple. Before he became fat and jolly, he was lean, even mean. He has traveled on snowshoes, by goat-cart and on a donkey. St. Nick's roots go back to ancient Roman clowns and an early Christian saint from Turkey. His elves hail from Finland. Ms. Gilmore lightly and brightly explains the several versions of Santa featured on Christmas cards since their invention a century and a half ago. Each card here is a small work of art and a window onto Christmas past. The collection can be kept intact, or cards may be detatched.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every December an envelope bearing a stamp from the North Pole would arrive for J.R.R. Tolkien’s children. Inside would be a letter in a strange, spidery handwriting and a beautiful colored drawing or painting. The letters were from Father Christmas. They told wonderful tales of life at the North Pole: how the reindeer got loose and scattered presents all over the place; how the accident-prone North Polar Bear climbed the North Pole and fell through the roof of Father Christmas’s house into the dining room; how he broke the Moon into four pieces and made the Man in it fall into the back garden; how there were wars with the troublesome horde of goblins who lived in the caves beneath the house, and many more. No reader, young or old, can fail to be charmed by Tolkien’s inventiveness in this classic holiday treat.
