This very hard-to-find vintage Christmas Celluloid Santa Claus roly polytoy was made by The Viscoloid Company of Leominster MA circa 1920s.
Santa is popping up out of a...n icy chimney and has a gift-filled sack on his back. Jolly Old St. Nick has such an endearing and sweet expression! This collectible toy measuresabout 3 ½” high.
This toy is marked on the back side with the Viscoloid Company mark – please seephotos.
What a charming holiday toy and it is in absolutely superb NEAR MINT condition! Thepaint is extraordinary with NO chips and is still very bright. There is a tiny bit of discolorationon the underside but there are no other condition issues to report.
Celluloid is such a delicate material, and it is hard to fathom that this piece– which hails from the 1920s – remains in this amazing condition.
This is a rare find and would be an ideal acquisition for the collector of difficult-to-findChristmas memorabilia or other vintage and antique toys. Enjoy!
