Hi Nuri! I'm a little behind in digests. (My email server just becomes inaccessible sometimes...) Someone may have answered this already.
Anyway, Santa was often sort of a maroonish red pre-Coca Cola, although sometimes 'real' red. He was also sometimes wearing a white coat, a beige coat, or even a green coat... BUT he was often THIN before Coca-Cola changed him into a very round fellow... See what Coke will do to you??? (can't stand Coke or Pepsi, myself... although there was a time when I drank Coke for breakfast - YUCK!) lots of love Anne NV (now viewing): my collection of old and old-looking Santas... mostly thin, and mostly maroon...
