Santa at the Ends of the Earth, Atmospheric Old Snapshot Photo

I like this one for its strangeness, and of course 'tis the season. And though a bit hard to tell, I think our Santa here may be a woman. Standing on snow, looking as if out in the middle of nowhere, on the mission of delivering some sort of present, tucked under one arm. And with (horseless--or deer-less!) carriage parked in the background. Feels a bit existential, really.

4 1/4" x 2 3/8". Good condition. First quarter 20th c. I believe.
