      The licence plate in the photo reminds me that the Canadian Post Office has assigned the postal code H0H 0H0 to Santa Clause's home in the North Pole.

      If kids write to him at that postal code, they will get a post card in reply

      See the website at: https://www.canadapost-postescanada....-to-santa.page

      Its nice to contemplate the fact that not all bureaucrats lack a sense of fun (Did I mention that I was a Canadian Government bureaucrat all of my career?)

          But it looks like a '31 or '32 Ford to me.

          Actually I think the Santa Claus bit began in Germany long, long ago.

            No, it's a 32 Rudolph. Germany's Santa is Kris Kringle.

              Yeah, the old drunk guy with the red nose. Later they swapped his addiction to a poor deer.

              BTW Rudolph was invented by Montgomery Ward and made popular by the song sang by Gene Autry.
