Santa Claus
Format: Hardback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

00 From the moment his now-familiar red-clad image first appeared on a Christmas card in 1885, Santa Claus has been the object of collectors' ardors. Since 1989, Santa amasser extraordinaire Luca Sacchi has been gobbling up Claus-themed items from all over the world—at flea markets, department stores, and by mail order. In this charming, pocket-sized volume, he opens up his vast collection, presenting 420 full-color images of the best, most hard-to-find pieces he has gathered. From salt-and-pepper shakers to soap dispensers, 1920s Limoges porcelain to 1970s tree ornaments, all bear Santa's iconic visage. Complementing these treasured objects are gingerbread man recipes, Christmas carol excerpts, and other textual passages evoking the holiday season. This book is the perfect stocking stuffer for collectors and anyone who loves Christmas.
