Santa # 1
During the days of Norman Rockwell, and the Circus lithograph artists as well, Coca-Cola used a real artist to create real artwork. Who would have ever known then that these Santas would become American icons today. By the way, the Coca-Cola Museum in downtown Atlanta has an incredible display of the Christmas Santas.

Christmas 1946
This is a beautiful piece of artwork with the year's calender below. Dad's is still in the basement. If you'll double click it, this will enlarge to show all the great detail in it.Peru, Indiana Winter Quarters
I recieved some Peru , Indiana photos on Friday and that reminded me I had some William Koford photos that Al Conover had distributed. The Corporation's Heyday was over and the destruction was about to begin. What was the worst thing of it all, was the number of circus friends and fans that asked for anything as a souvenior, a wheel, a carving or even a wagon were told NO. Everything was set on fire.
