The Curator Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 Santa was made by Paramount No 461. The original version of this Santa was made with a flat metal back he was then released three dimensional like yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Fischer Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 He was made by paramount (Raylite Electric Corporation). He was their #361 "Realistic Santa Claus" and is shown in their 1958 catalog. Technically he is not a blow mold, he was injection molded. We have one of those and he is cute looking indoor display piece. That one shows up on eBay several times a year and usually goes for a low price.

According to the Paramount 1955 & 1958 catalogs, this one is their #361 and the flat back one is their #461. Mel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Curator Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Mel you are correct I got my boxes crossed when looking at them. Indeed the Santa Illuminated Plaque is number 461. When I pulled them from the warehouse to look I didn't realize they were in the wrong boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
