Vintage Rushton Rubber Face Santa 20\" Plush UpcycledThis little guy has been repaired in many ways and he is well loved, but so cute, silly, and charming!
First, he has his original face, boots, and belt.Arms and mittened hands are all original as well.
Now, here are the repairs-
Sometime in the 70s, he had a silver and gray lush curly wig added, and glued on.It covers his original hair and beard- though they are both still there underneath the glue, should you choose to remove the wig.
His legs at some point broke down and the fabric tore, but there is nylon holding all the stuffing and older fabric together.
Someone made him a new vest and pants in red and white felt fabric, much like the original in design and fabric.
His hat is also likely a replacement, but it fits on his curly wig quite well.
I just love him and I know, someone else will, too.
