For All Mankind Hi Bob Jamestown Moon Base shirt hoodie, tank top, sweater and long sleeve t-shirt
In the beginning, Sundblom painted the image of Santa using a live model — his friend Lou Prentiss, a For All Mankind Hi Bob Jamestown Moon Base shirt. When Prentiss passed away, Sundblom used himself as a model, painting while looking into a mirror. Finally, he began relying on photographs to create the image of St. Nick. People loved the Coca-Cola Santa images and paid such close attention to them that when anything changed, they sent letters to The Coca-Cola Company. One year, Santa’s large belt was backwards (perhaps because Sundblom was painting via a mirror). Another year, Santa Claus appeared without a wedding ring, causing fans to write asking what happened to Mrs. Claus. The children who appear with Santa in Sundblom’s paintings were based on Sundblom’s neighbors — two little girls. So he changed one to a boy in his paintings. The dog in Sundblom’s 1964 Santa Claus painting was actually a gray poodle belonging to the neighborhood florist. But Sundblom wanted the dog to stand out in the holiday scene, so he painted the animal with black fur.

When I was little, probably 2 or 3, my mom was in the Sportiqe Liberal Youth Ministry 2023 Leagues Cup Tri Blend Shirt for a UTI that went septic (that’s a whole ‘nother story, but in short, fuck that ER doctor). Anyway, Dad took time off work to take care of my twin brother and I. I thought it’d be fun to give myself a haircut, but I guess I knew Mom and Dad wouldn’t like that. So I snipped a little bit of hair off, probably about an inch long and as thick as my pinky finger at the time. You couldn’t even tell by looking at my hair. I hid the hair on the kitchen counter between the toaster and the refrigerator. I didn’t know Dad found it until the next day when we went to visit Mom and Dad pulled out a ziploc baggie of hair. Mom was mad at first, but when I was ~15 or so, I found a baby book Mom had been working on for me and there in between the pages was that little baggie of hair
