Santa Letters From Wellington Texas 1946 Christmas
A collection of handwritten Santa letters from Wellington Texas in December 1946. Dozens of children ask for toys including dolls, trains, tricycles, guns, ball games, and house shoes, often recalling family members abroad and asking Santa to remember mothers, fathers, siblings, and grandmothers. Some children request sewing machines, furniture, and school items, while others send thanks and warm wishes.
