Description
I'm posting and sharing a few pieces from my personal collection of paper ephemera and early advertising. This particular one was drawn by Thomas Nast and engraved by other artists to be reproduced in a magazine. A tedious process. ..... Santa Claus has been around in one form or another for a long time. It was American artist Thomas Nast who made him famous to the general public. This depiction from Harper's Weekly, 1871 is the classic version. Harper's Weekly was a famous early illustrated magazine. They used wood block engravings because photo mechanical reproduction was 20years in the future. Enjoy.
