Beschreibung

Jolly Old Elf--The Art of Santa H. Claus is a Christmas fantasy. It is part Santa biography, and part tour of Santa's hidden art treasures. Jolly Old Elf tells the story of Santa's life and career as a toymaker and gift giver, as well as his second career as an artist, a Christmas card and movie poster maker. Along the way we meet Frosty Schneemann, Mrs. Claus (Mary Kringle), Rudolph Reinsdyr, and a short list of other polar greats. Jolly Old Elf is filled with dozens of Santa's till now unseen creative masterpieces, as well as biographical snippets, stories and anecdotes of life on the North Pole. Narrated by Frosty, Mrs. Claus, Rudolph and others, Jolly Old Elf is a joyful and very silly farce, a combination lost biography and treasure chest of previously unseen art history masterpieces.
