Down With A Bound Story

Item #5135

(January, 1991) “As I drew in my head, and was turning around, – Down the chimney St. Nickolas came with a bound.” The inspiration for this statue came from Clement C. Moore’s beloved Christmas poem. Luckily the “right jolly old elf” and his bag of gifts survived the impact. Three stockings are hung by the chimney and now Santa can fill them with the wonderful presents he has brought: binoculars, blocks, a cuckoo clock, a truck, a ball, a teddy bear, a football – and a gnome! Santa’s first surprise was falling down the chimney. His second surprise will be seeing a statue of himself with the Christmas decorations on the mantel. Down With A Bound can also be used as a bookend for your favorite Christmas books, especially The Night Before Christmas.
