How Old is Santa Claus

[nova treasure]

I went to a Old Homesite and started clearing tree limbs out of the area around the site,so i could swing my detector in a couple days when our weather warms back up. I took a break and was admiring this hollow tree and looked in it and to my suprise,this Santa Claus was in it covered with fallen leaves.

I really am not for sure if this is very old or just picked out of a nearby trash pile and sat in there several yrs ago.It is Pretty cool with the Fawn,Toy bag and holding a Lantern. If anyone has any idea of how old or new this could be,i would Like to hear your thoughts.It doesn't have any markings on it.

I Love finding stuff like this and thought it was neat finding it in the tree.

I'd say 1930-1950's
