Vintage Santa in Candy Car Christmas Greeting Card

A cheerful scene shows Santa behind the wheel of a dark green vintage automobile, one hand on the steering wheel and the other waving merrily at the world—except Santa has apparently abandoned the reindeer operation entirely in favor of this candy-wheeled contraption, because if you wanted to convey 'I've given up on tradition,' obviously swapping eight flying deer for a car that runs on diabetes is the move. The backseat is stuffed with oversized candy canes and what appears to be a giant red lollipop, because Santa's vehicle doubles as a mobile sugar crisis. He's steering with one green-mitted hand while waving the other in the air like a man who absolutely should not be operating a vehicle, his mouth wide open in the kind of glee that would get you a DUI in any jurisdiction. The 'Santa Says' framing on the attached tag is doing a lot of authoritarian heavy lifting for a man whose transportation choices suggest he has never once passed a safety inspection.
