Scope and content
A very jolly giant Santa is being firmly planted in the front lawn of his creator's home. This man has successfully followed the do-it-yourself instructions on the wooden Santa kit, painted the various pieces, and nailed them together to create a lasting Christmas decoration. Do-it-yourself projects were becoming more and more popular as people began to realize that they were capable of fine handicraft. Photograph ordered by Douglas Fir Plywood Association. (See A85729-24 for night exposure of this same Santa)
