ANTIQUE 25.5 Standing Face Mask Santa Claus Christmas Doll Figure 1920's

  
25.5 Standing Face Mask Santa Claus Figure. This is likely from the 20's and for it's age it has faired pretty well. There are a couple minor snags on his red satin suit and the back shoulder area appears to have been repaired. His boots have age-related scuffs and his'fur' lined suit is a bit dirty. His face is in overall excellent condition, although the'mask' is held in position with straight pins I don't know if this is normal?

And his hat is not attached to his head. The last picture shows his hat pushed back to expose his face.

I assume he originally came with a belt, which is missing. He does stand but is shown leaning against the wall in the photos because he tends to fall forward.

A bit of manipulating of his stuffing will resolve that issue. I particularly love the wry expression on his face, and the fact that the artist bothered to make his skin'wrinkled' in appearance, something I have not seen in other antique mask face santas.
