This is an unusually large Santa window house and architecturally speaking is the most interesting that I have seen and of course a favorite of mine. The porcelain Santa is an original and was in very good condition. The base is 6 1/2" long and 4" deep and it is 5" high overall. Sort of odd as it is taller compared to the length of the base proportionately than usual. Enjoy.

Tom,
First of all, it's great to have you back. Hope you don't have a repeat performance soon.
Second, I love the house and especially the ceramic Santa.
Third, was that window original?
Fourth, is the door stick-on or stick-in?

Sorry to be so nosey. :-)

Paul

The window is one I printed the door is a stick on and @-+%#!&*? I had to look through about 5 suitcases to find it to verify this. The window is very good and the only way I was sure was to look in the back hole and see that the paper was white and new. The reason I bought this house is that I knew that the window opening that takes the Santa window is ALWAY made with this strange hill and dale opening and I had the window.
