Vintage Josef Originals Adorable Elf in Santa Suit Guarding His Christmas Gifts

Description: This is a charming, yet well-mannered elf standing guard over a stash of Christmas gifts. He has a playful expression, wide eyes, and a curly-Q hair lock sticks out of his Santa cap. He is dressed in a traditional Santa suit complete with black boots with tons of fluff around the ankles and outlining his jacket and cap. He is diligently watching over 3 gifts that are brightly decorated with ribbon and bows. I’ve seen this elf called Minty, but I cannot confirm that. If so, he certainly is in 'mint' vintage condition. He measures approximately 6.5” x 3” x 3”. He is up for adoption, gifts and all! On the bottom is the copyright Josef stamp and Japan foiled tag. On the gift with the red bow, you will see the Josef Originals gold and black foiled tag with the curlicue, which denotes this figuring was made in Japan shortly after JO moved production from CA, USA to Japan in 1960. This elf stands out from others I’ve seen. It looks as if someone opened the door during a snow storm and a gust of wind blew snowflakes all over him, mostly on the front. Even his face, hair, cap, boots, and the gifts have specks of snow. I have 3 of these and will be selling the other 2 eventually (or you can message me and buy all 3 now). However, the other 2 do not have the same sprinkles. Therefore, this guy is especially alluring. Please note. This item is in excellent vintage condition. There are no scratches, chips, or repairs. This is hand painted so there may be some fading or imperfections. Please review the pictures with care. I see no crazing. There is some glare from the lighting. I am happy to send additional pics if needed. All sizes are approximate. I only clean the figurines with a feather duster. I do not wish to damage these treasures, so I leave that up to you. Packaged for safekeeping. Insured and shipped via USPS Priority Mail or Ground Advantage, with tracking. The quoted shipping rate was calculated by USPS from my zip code to yours. I do not make money on shipping nor do I control the costs. I do not charge for handling and packing materials. Thank you for your consideration. I welcome your questions.
