Victorian Christmas Santa Airship Greeting Card

Santa's steering wheel appears to be roughly the size of his entire torso, suggesting either a radical miscalculation in proportions or a machine designed for someone eight feet tall. He has fully abandoned the reindeer industrial complex in favor of what can only be described as a Wright Brothers fever dream, piloting an early biplane with the serene confidence of a man who absolutely did not read the safety manual. He's clutching this wooden steering wheel, wearing his full red suit and black boots like a man who dresses for the job he wants, while his open sack of toys and holly spills out behind him — because when you think airborne structural integrity, loose cargo in a glorified kite is obviously the move. The verse helpfully explains he now uses his 'airship' for his annual Christmas trip, which is either visionary marketing or a desperate bid to stay relevant in 1910, and either way it's giving 'department store Santa who just discovered technology' energy.
