Santa Through the Ages

The Coca-Cola Santa

That’s right, the Santa Claus that you know so well was created by Coca-Cola for an ad campaign beginning in the thirties. Haddon Sundblom was the artist who made me who I am today. I was now jolly and round, and my eyes twinkled with joy. Each Christmas for thirty-five years, I appeared in a new pose in the Coca-Cola advertisements. But I didn’t mind. This new version of me captured my true essence and the true spirit of Christmas.
