CHRISTMAS FANTASY "Scarlet clothed Santa"


 




Episode 6 of Robin Morrow's series Christmas Fantasy. The first appearance of a modern Santa Claus, complete with what we consider to be the Santa suit was in drawings by Thomas Nast. Nast's original drawings were of a small Santa who could slide down chimneys, but his later works made him full size. He was also the first to draw Santa wearing a red suit with fur lining, a nightcap, and a black belt with a large buckle. Hear this and other stories of Christmas.
