Sax Playing Santa

The Sax Playing Santa was an animated Christmas decoration made from 2000 - 2001. It resembles that of a Santa Claus wearing a red jacket with a white shirt and black necktie underneath, black pants with dance shoes and sunglasses, and holds a saxophone in his hands. When activated, Santa raises the saxophone to his lips as he swings his hips while playing "Jingle Bells" and "Deck the Halls" on his saxophone.
