Picked up another Santa doll on Black Friday. This one is much larger than the others at 32" tall. As you can see he is much larger than his fellow Santa dolls. He is from the 50s or 60swhich I can tell just by guessing.
The glowing green eyes belong to Smokey the fluffy black cat.
Thank you

Some of these look very similar to the Santa dolls sold in the 60's that had a small bottle of Coca-Cola in the hand of Santa.
Thank you very much Juanita. The Santa dolls holding a coke were made by Rushton. 3rd photo 2nd from left is a Rushton although he was not part of the Coke series. There is also a similar Coke Santa made in the 80s.
Thank you CindB. He just looks mean but is actually quite pleasant.
Thank you Virgina.vintage.

Thank you very much WideAwake. Alas my larger 7 up Santa didn't make it out this year.
