The Santa Claus se-tenant stamps portray the familiar holiday character in chromolithographs that date from the 1880s to 1920. The designs were also featured on booklet stamps (U.S. #3541-44).
Our modern Santa Claus has his roots in ancient European customs of giving gifts on a special day in winter. Saint Nicholas, a fourth-century bishop, became the Christian figure associated with holiday gift-giving. The Dutch brought their version of St. Nicholas to America, calling him “Sinterklaas.” English settlers adopted him, pronouncing his name “Santa Claus.”
